Top 10 Heaviest 2013 Coupes

2012 Rolls Royce Phantom Coupe front three quarter 300x187 image2. 2013 Rolls-Royce Phantom Coupé — 5688 pounds

Price: $433,895

Even though it stretches 220.8 inches long and spans 78.2 inches wide, the Rolls-Royce Phantom Coupé isn’t the heaviest coupe on sale today — but it’s pretty close. The massive, majestic two-door body contains a 6.7-liter V-12 engine good for 453 hp and 531 lb-ft, channeled through an eight-speed automatic transmission. Ornate details abound: the hood and windshield frame are made from exposed stainless steel, the rear-hinged doors can be closed with the touch of a button, and there’s even an optional headliner with twinkling LEDs meant to mimic starlight. Despite a lightweight aluminum body, filling the interior with hand-prepared wood, leather, and chrome keeps the Phantom Coupé’s mass high. And even with all that mass to move around, the V-12 engine still propels the Rolls to 60 mph in 5.3 seconds and on to a top speed of 155 mph. Given the fact the car is built by hand and offers that much capability, it’s no wonder the Phantom Coupé is the most expensive entry on this list.

How did the Lamborghini Aventador and Bugatti Veyron not make this list?

@xXKingJoshXx My bad, I just checked and the Veyron checks in at 41xx pounds. I'm not sure why they excluded it.

@xXKingJoshXx Both of those cars are lighter than 3935 pounds. The Camaro SS, Aventador, and Veyron all weigh just a few pounds less than the lightest car on the list.
