COTY Contender: Mansory Conquistador




German tuners Mansory have taken the ultimate status symbol, the Rolls Royce Phantom, and modified the heck out of it. A gutsy modification needs a gutsy engine, and the Conquistador's certainly got one. Mansory's Conquistador, as it is oddly named, has an upgraded engine allowing for a top speed of 168 mph, versus approximately 149 for the plain-jane standard Phantom. Further putting to shame the standard Rolls (if you can call it standard), the Conquistador features carbon fiber trim and couture-quality fabrics and leathers throughout. While some may prefer the more traditional trim of the original Rolls Royce version, the Mansory Conquistador no doubt has its fans, and for a reason. Mansory has performed a highly successful conversion, with tasteful touches abound, including the best use of carbon fiber we've seen in a car yet. And if you thought it wasn't possible for the finishing and material of the Phantom to get any better, you thought wrong. Every inch of the Mansory Conquistador is carefully polished, and wrapped in gleaming carbon fiber, plush fabric, buttery leather, Alcantara, and subtle strips of blue light forming logos and lines accent the cabin which provide a unique and mesmerizing ambiance.

It may be early, and perhaps seem pre-mature, but the decision is a no-brainer: for an unrivaled level of finish, style, and luxury, the Mansory Conquistador is our first contender for Reporting Luxury Car of the Year. Sometime nearing the end of the year we will get your votes on which of our candidates will win the first ever Reporting Luxury Car of the Year Award.
