My expert opinion and pricing analysis on the offerThis 2011 Rolls-Royce Ghost, Anthracite over Crème Light, 15,153 miles, rear picnic tables included, is listed at $89,999. To put that in context: this car started life at $245,000. Someone took a six-figure depreciation hit, so you don't have to.2011-rolls-royce-ghost-gray-sca664s5xbux49397_011 Market data from Cars.com puts the nationwide average for a 2011 Ghost at $83,681, with entry-level examples starting around $68,650. At $89,999, this car asks roughly $6,300 above the average, a premium that's justified by the low, well-preserved mileage, the desirable Anthracite color, factory Walnut Burr veneer, and a third-party Lemon Squad inspection already on file. Clean, low-mileage first-gen Ghosts are becoming genuinely difficult to find; the ones that show up tend to have north of 40,000 miles and a service history that raises questions. This one, at just over 15,000 miles, doesn't require nearly as much faith.Video walk-around on this exact Rolls-Royce Ghost for saleThe offerMake: Rolls-RoyceModel: GhostYear: 2011Mileage: 15,153 (Exempt / TMU)Engine: 6.6L twin-turbocharged V12Power: 563 hp / 575 lb-ft of torqueTransmission: 8-speed automatic (ZF)Drive type: Rear-wheel driveExterior color: AnthraciteInterior color: Crème LightNotable equipment: 19" 9-spoke alloy wheels, Walnut Burr veneer, rear picnic table, 4-zone automatic climate controlInspection: Third-party Lemon Squad report availableAsking price: $89,9992011-rolls-royce-ghost-gray-sca664s5xbux49397_001 Need new tires?

The result was a car that is 212.6 inches long, weighs 5,445 pounds, and was the cheapest new Rolls-Royce you could buy at $245,000. "Entry-level" is doing a lot of work there.This example wears Anthracite, a deep, dark grey that reads almost black in shadow and reveals subtle warmth in direct sunlight. It's one of the better colors for this generation Ghost, dignified without being anonymous, and it pairs cleanly with the Crème Light interior. Inside, Walnut Burr veneer spans the dash in the kind of matched, bookmatched grain that only happens when the wood inlays are sourced from the same tree. The rear picnic tables fold out from the front seatbacks, because if you're riding in the back of a Ghost, you presumably have things to attend to.Under the long bonnet, the 6.6-liter twin-turbocharged V12 makes 563 horsepower and 575 lb-ft of torque, delivered through a ZF 8-speed automatic to the rear wheels. Rolls-Royce quoted 0-60 in 4.7 seconds. The top speed is electronically capped at 155 mph, a detail that has never once mattered to any Ghost owner in the history of the model. Four-zone automatic climate control keeps all occupants in their preferred microclimate, because one thermostat is for people who ride the bus.2011-rolls-royce-ghost-gray-sca664s5xbux49397_005 The listing notes that a third-party Lemon Squad inspection report is available, a meaningful data point on any pre-owned exotic purchase, and particularly useful on a car of this complexity.2011 Rolls-Royce Ghost quick takeThe first-generation Ghost has aged into a genuinely compelling used buy. Owner ratings sit at 4.7 out of 5, and 83% of owners recommend it, numbers that would be impressive for a Honda Civic, let alone a hand-assembled British ultra-luxury sedan. One owner's summary captures it well: outstanding reliability, reasonable to service thanks to its BMW underpinnings, and still possessed of the unmistakable Rolls-Royce character that no amount of platform-sharing can dilute.At $89,999, this car is priced above the market average for the year, but below what a comparable low-mileage example in a desirable color combination would have fetched even two years ago. The Anthracite exterior, Crème Light interior, and 15,153-mile odometer reading give it a presentation that the bulk of the used Ghost market, higher-mileage, less carefully kept, simply can't match. The available inspection report removes much of the guesswork.Verdict: For a buyer who wants a properly preserved first-gen Ghost without playing mileage roulette, this Newport example makes a strong case for itself. The $89,999 ask is fair for what's on offer, not a screaming bargain, but a car that earns its premium through condition and presentation rather than wishful pricing. If the inspection checks out, this is exactly the kind of Rolls-Royce to buy. Disclaimer: This post is for informational purposes only. We are not a dealership or broker.
