The first super-tuned version of the new Ghost EX200 is now available on JamesList and is priced at €450,000. The tuning specialists at Deutsche Manufaktur wielded their talents onto what is considered as the “baby” Rolls-Royce and dubbed it the “Numero Uno.”

The luxury mobile is given styling modifications that merge “aggression and luxury using the precision quality of Deutsche’s technology.” Deutsche Manufaktur loves calling it the “Ghost in the Machine.” What makes the vehicle stick out is probably its expressiveness. The tuning firm claims that its widened front makes the Ghost look more “bullish and strong,” that the extended grill “sends signals of pride” and that the “angry eyes express style.” At the touch of a button, you can dim the intelligent glass. For its interior, finishing options include wood, carbonfiber or Alcantara. For enhanced personalization, you can opt for hand-stitched leather for the upholstery in various color combinations. Additional features include a custom steering wheel and a three-part set of aluminum pedals and brake handle.

Tom Purves, Rolls-Royce’s CEO has finally announced the name of the upcoming new model known until know as the RR4. It appears that the new car will be called the Rolls Royce Ghost and its production will begin at the company’s Goodwood manufacturing facility later in 2009.

“We are delighted to formally announce the Rolls-Royce Ghost. It is one of the most revered names in the automotive industry, evoking images of adventure and technical innovation. The name reflects this new model’s breadth of abilities. The first cars to bear the Ghost name were known not only for impressive dependability and refinement but also great flair and style. This car will be the first in a new generation of models to carry this evocative name and will give us two pinnacle product lines – Phantom and Ghost” said Tom Purves. For those who don’t know, the car will be based on the 200EX Concept showed by the British manufacturer at this year’s Geneva Motor Show. Under the hood we will find a 6.6-liter V12 engine, produced by Bmw, which will deliver an impressive 507 hp. Photo gallery after the jump!
