1907 Rolls-Royce 40/50, “The Silver Ghost,”
Quote:

The Silver Ghost got its name because it was largely unpainted, revealing it polished aluminum body, and was ‘quiet as a ghost,’ a often noted sentiment by passer-byers who were amazed by how silent the car was. The name became so famous, in fact, that every Rolls-Royce 40/50 came to include the tag ‘Silver Ghost’ despite the fact that there is only one real Silver Ghost.
