Gold-Laden Rolls-Royce Spectre Is A Vulgar Display Of Petroleum-Fueled Wealth

Mansory is starting the year 2025 on a high note. After releasing a controversial take on the new AMG GLE 63, the German tuner and purveyor of often-eyebrow-raising creations has introduced a full vehicle conversion of the Rolls-Royce Spectre called the Equista Linea d’Oro as part of the showroom-destined Mansory Atelier line.

Unlike Mansory’s first conversion of the electric Rolls-Royce, the Equista Linea d’Oro doesn’t just come with carbon fiber kits – it comes with eye-catching gold-plated and gold-colored elements inside and out, following the design execution of the Linea d’Oro models we’ve seen before and the first Linea d’Oro model, the Veyron, introduced in 2010.

Nothing Glitters Like Gold

The assignment was simple with the Equista Linea d’Oro – converting the chrome and silver finishes of the Rolls-Royce EV into real gold, including the Spirit of Ecstasy that had been redesigned for the electric era. This includes the huge gold-plated wheels that should capture anyone’s attention from a mile away.

Meanwhile, the Equista Linea d’Oro’s carbon fiber kits on the exterior have been decorated with authentic gold inlays, further elevating this EV’s monetary value. The inlays are also found on the carbon fiber inserts within the cabin, which Mansory completely converted into a white and gold theme. Obviously, Mansory didn’t spare any expense in this conversion with the extensive use of gold, which is quite fitting since this one appears to be headed to the Middle East based on the aftermarket firm’s social media posts.

Retaining The Spectre’s Electric Setup

Mansory usually adds a bit more oomph to its ICE-powered creations, but that isn’t the case with the Equista Linea d’Oro. The company didn’t touch the Spectre’s stealthy electric powertrain setup, meaning it retains a 255-horsepower front motor and a 483-hp rear motor, for a combined output of 577 hp and 664 lb-ft of torque. We’re not sure of its final weight after the gold-laden conversion, but it should still be able to hit 60 mph from a standstill somewhere close to theregular car’s claim of 4.4 seconds.

As with most Mansory creations, the Equista Linea d’Oro’s price wasn’t disclosed, but we won’t be surprised to see a hefty addition to the EV’s base value given the use of carbon fiber and precious metal. And like other Mansory Atelier models, it will serve as a proof of concept for its wealthy patrons, which they can then use in their custom-made orders. With builds like these, it’s all about grabbing as much attention as possible, but is it tasteful? Let us know your thoughts in the comments below.
