Adding to our long list of Rolls Royce Phantom wannabes from all over the world (bad taste has no ethnic boundaries...) is this creation that's said to come from Kazakhstan. A fitting (luxury) proposal for Sacha Baron Cohen's fictional character Borat, the Phantom appears to be based on the late 1980s - early 1990s, W124 Mercedes-Benz E-Class.

This is so wrong, in so many ways that we've lost count. But admittedly it is comically hilarious. Actually it's probably the most ridiculous transformation of a Hummer we've seen to date. Now, why on earth would someone perform a Rolls Royce Phantom-like face transplant on an Hummer H2 is beyond logical comprehension. We'll just leave it at that...Via: Autogespot
If by any chance you were wondering whether or not this year's Shanghai Auto Show that runs from April 20 to 28 will host any new Chinese clones, BYD Auto with its Lexus RX doppelganger and now Geely with its new "Phantomized" GE limo, leave few doubts to as what we should be expecting to see at the motorshow.
Among the army of new cars and concept studies that Geely is preparing to bring to Shanghai is the GE, a proposal for a high-end limousine that looks like the outcome of a 10-year-old designing a Rolls-Royce Phantom. However, unlike the British luxury sedan, the 5.3-meter long GE does not get suicide rear doors while weirdly enough, the car's interior has a 2+1 seating arrangement, with the rear passenger getting the royal treatment.

With inspiration coming from the Phantom Drophead Coupe (convertible) and the Phantom Coupe, Rolls Royce revealed the 2009 Model Year Phantom and Phantom Extended Wheelbase. The facelifted Phantom limos are distinguished on the outside by a new streamlined front bumper that has been designed and integrated with a shallower grille, finished in stainless steel. Other new exterior features include LED door handle illumination and the fitting of 21-inch cast alloy wheels as standard.
Furthermore, the BMW Group owned British automaker offers two more wheel options, both manufactured in forged alloy and available in either painted or part polished finishes.
Inside, the rear passengers of the 2009 Phantom benefit from a new RCA component input which provides auxiliary audio and visual connectivity to the 12-inch monitors mounted within the picnic tables. Other additions include new front and rear door cappings with integrated grab handles and new bi-directional double reading lights in the C-pillar while the rar climate control, volume control and electric window switches have been repositioned and are now housed in a wood veneer panel in the door.
The subtly facelifted Phantom sedans will go on sale this spring.
