If you’ve ever wondered what the quickest way to build a four-door RR coupe would be, replacing the Ghost’s roof with that of the Wraith should definitely get the job done.
The result, according to the talented folk over at Theswageline, is called the Shadow. It’s a slightly sportier, more driver-focused alternative to the Ghost, though if we think about it, in order for it to be more driver-focused it would also need additional mods completely unrelated to its appearance.
Finished in Aqua Blue, this render features all the familiar Rolls-Royce styling cues you can think of, such as the coach-style rear doors, the brushed aluminum bonnet and of course the Spirit of Ecstasy.
Now back to the real world, because the only thing real about this image is the fact that two actual Rolls-Royce models were used for this design to come together. So in reality, the British luxury car maker has more important things to do than to built a 4-door coupe at the moment, such as getting the all-new Phantom ready for its 2018 debut.
And no, its shape isn’t going to remind anybody of this drawing since RR have already teased the next Phantom’s all-aluminum body and its massive, near-vertical C-Pillar reminds us a lot of the current car.
