Ghost competition

Now THIS is a European version of the Hellcat Charger. To be specific, it's paternally German and maternally English, it uses a German transmission, it produces an American-like 627 lb-ft of torque out of a HUGE displacement engine, and it's big (albeit not too so). Like the Hellcat, it doesn't corner too well.
The LD-body (evolution of LX-body) cars are BIOLOGICALLY half American and half German, even though strangely they are now under Italian-French control.
OFFICIALLY the Dodge Charger (aka Chrysler 300) competes in the E-segment crowd, while the Rolls-Royce Ghost actually competes in the top end of the F-segment crowd, but in the Scat Pack/Hellcat/Redeye versions, the very same model has quite a lot in common with the Ghost (aside from the RWD in the Dodge and the AWD in the Royce).
The Charger and Ghost are full-size sedans too. However, compared to the Charger, the Ghost feels like an old-school American full-size sedan from the 20th century or early 21st century.
NOT to mention that both the Charger and the Ghost rely on old-school, RETRO LOOKS + DYNAMICS !!

"The electric car is perfectly noiseless and clean. There is no smell or vibration. They should become very useful when fixed charging stations can be arranged.”
Charles Rolls 1900
2024 Rolls-Royce Spectre, 122 years later (now~ 124 years until launch) is almost upon us. A fully ELECTRIC Rolls-Royce?
Prophetically inspired. Powered by BMW.

I've no idea where to put this post. But does anyone know what is happening at www.motortrend.com ? They did produce very good acceleration figures for the Rolls Royce Ghost II very recently. But now the website appears to have closed down for me in Ireland. Is anyone experiencing such difficulties?
Safe driving from Flt 158
