Earlier last month two Wraiths swung by Vancouver for an overnight stop. Of the 4 demo units touring the world, two are specifically designated to go on a 22 North America city tour. I believe Vancouver was 12. The cars went down to Vegas immediately after the stop in Vancouver. The final stop of the entire tour should be mid November in Miami.
In any case the car is pretty bad ass, take a look yourself. Five orders were placed by the time the launch party was over in Vancouver. Looking forward to seeing Wraiths owned locally soon as delivery for the Wraith is as early February.

As a fun fact of the day- the Wraith has the largest production veneer in the automotive industry at the moment. The veneer panel can be seen in the suicide doors. On a side note, the options for this veneer are strictly straight grain and are without option oriented towards the dash- the reasoning for this was because the designers of the car wanted the passengers to have a sense of movement in the design. The colour options for the dash are all dark in colour. A sense of movement towards an abyss, the darkened dash, was what the designers metaphorically had in mind.
I personally didn't get that from messing around the car until the representative went in to detail about it. Definitely interesting to see this much thought be put in to the car.
Wouldn't expect any less of Rolls-Royce.
