What it is, is, pig ugly! A dreadful looking car. I only hope it looks better in the flesh!

Yes. Think we were posting at the same time.

Seen the Wraith at the factory and thought it looked ok.

I think it looks a lot nicer in two tone paint.

And from the front. Rear not its best point, to put it mildly.

I think it still looks just silly really - I know they are trying to make it more aerodynamic, but the radiator looks absurd. The problem is the Rolls Royce radiator grill is not an aerodynamic shape, and they have tried to make it so - and it ends up looking ridiculous. They should just face up to the fact the grill is not aerodynamic and either totally re-design it or keep it like it used to be.

I would put it in the Ssangyong Rodius category of silly looking poorly proportioned cars.

Whilst I'm not a fan of the Bentley Continental GT, VW did make a good job of aerodynamic-ising the traditional grill.
