The Silver Shadow was one of the most popular models released by Rolls-Royce. There were more than 30,000 units produced between 1965 and 1980, making it the most produced model Rolls-Royce has ever made. The 1973 Rolls-Royce Silver Shadow comes equipped with a powerful 6750cc V8 engine, which replaced the 6230cc V8 engine that Silver Shadows between 1965 and 1970 had. Other defining features of the Silver Shadow include its three-speed THM 400 automatic transmission, an engineering marvel of the time, and the hydraulic rear suspension. These features, combined with its reputation for being ultra-safe, made the Silver Shadow Rolls-Royces flagship automobile for performance and luxury. Its one of the few classic cars of the era to come standard with electric seats and windows.
