This is the Rolls-Royce Phantom Goldfinger, a Rolls-Royce inspired by James Bond with an endless supply of Easter eggs and tributes to 007.

There’s only one in the world.

It’s not for sale, but if it were, it would easily fetch between $15 million and $20 million at auction.

The number plate alone is worth a fortune.

The Phantom Goldfinger is a love letter to the most iconic 007 movie

The Rolls-Royce Phantom Goldfinger is a one-off Rolls-Royce inspired by – and dedicated to – James Bond.

Specifically, the car is a tribute to the original Phantom II from the 1964 movie Goldfinger.

We tend to forget that sometimes, but while James Bond himself drove the evergreen Aston Martin DB5, the villain in Goldfinger was in a 1937 Rolls-Royce Phantom II Sedanca de Ville.

In fact, he drove the very same car you can see here, pictured below.

Like the 1937 classic, the modern-day Rolls-Royce Phantom Goldfinger features two-tone paint on the exterior, and Rolls-Royce even went as far as to create a modern version of the original wheels.

As for the interior, the Goldfinger Phantom is a festival of easter eggs, starting from the gold-plated bullets located in the seat trim of the car.

And by the way, everything you see that looks like gold is not just paint.

It’s either solid gold or gold-plated.

According to Rolls-Royce, the car took three years to build, and the bespoke artwork running the full width of the front fascia, representing the Furka Pass car chase, took an entire year alone to design and create.

The 3D contour map of the Furka Pass is accompanied by a star pattern on the roof of the same location, and gold-inlaid picnic tables depicting a fictional map of Fort Knox.

The list of 007-themed and Goldfinger easter eggs goes on.

Among other things, you’ve got a gold VIN plaque and a solid gold scale model of the car in the center console.

How much is this car worth?

It’s difficult to determine the value of the car because there’s only one in the world, but if it were for sale, it would easily fetch anywhere between $15 million and $20 million.

The number plate alone – AU1 – costs $1 million.

And speaking of the number plate, that too is a tribute to the movie as it’s the same plate used in the film.

AU is the chemical symbol for gold, from the Latin word ‘aurum’, yet another homage to the movie’s villainous gold smuggler and James Bond’s main antagonist, Auric Goldfinger
