Autocar reported:

Rolls unveiled its new Phantom Coupe to an expectant Geneva crowd. "Having released pictures of the car two weeks ago, we didn't expect such a big turn-out for the unveiling," said Rolls PR man Jon Stanley. "We don't tend to take orders at motor shows, but so far, the reaction has been overwhelmingly positive."

"This car should bring in a new type of customer for us," he continued, "the sort of owner who like the idea of a Rolls-Royce, but wouldn't opt for a limousine or a convertible. We expect two thirds of Coupe buyers to be new to the brand but, since they're likely to be the sort of people who own five or more cars, we're unlikely to be calling those 'conquest sales'."

The two-door car has a gorgeous look. The earlier version of the model was Rolls-Royce Phantom Drophead Coupé which was unveiled in 2007. Rolls-Royce Phantom Coupe has already attracted people with its technology and stylish look. The company received many bookings for the car already. So, Phantom Coupe seems to be a success story of Rolls-Royce.
