winding road videos record audio with care to make it as accurate as possible.

i believe that's how it sounds. it could be a 'sport' mode or something that brings more real/fake sound into the cabin.

putting that aside though, i think the design and quality of it all is wonderful.

white though, would be the very last color i'd own one in (not that i will ever own ANY rr lol).

Despite the near-endless color combos the vast majority of Rolls-Royces are sold in black or white. I don't really think the Cullinan looks great in any color but I know I'm in the minority.

i wouldn't say it "looks great" but it doesnt look bad.

Personally, I'm not a fan of Rolls Royce from a styling perspective.

Funny thing is that the Phantom is already the height of a standard crossover at 65 inches. Just a couple inches shy of the RX.

I drove a 2021 Ghost which shares the same engine as the Cullinan and there is no sound when accelerating. It was an awesome experience. Had to be something with the mic or something else.

Its all relative to your income.
There is a growing group of high net worth ppl in the world that doesn’t blink twice to spend that and more.

I have seen a ton of these, Lambo Urus, G63 and Aston DBX. All of these are $250k and up.

Its all relative sure, but I can say that I personally would not spend $400,000 on a car no matter how much money I made or had. Its just not something I would be comfortable driving around in, and I'm not somebody that has any desire to own cars I don't drive. I'm uncomfortable driving a $125,000 car sometimes. Clearly others don't have that issue, but I'm just talking about myself.
