In 2004, the 101EX, a grand tourer coupe prototype based on the 100EX, was presented at the Geneva International Auto Show.

The 101EX shares its aluminium space frame chassis technology with the 2003 Phantom, albeit in a shortened version. The car is 9.5 in (241 mm) shorter than the Phantom saloon, with a lower roofline and shallower glass area. Power comes from the BMW 6.75L V12 engine. It debuted at the 2008 Geneva Motor Show. This car was featured in the film Johnny English Reborn, and for the film Rowan Atkinson asked of BMW to use one of the V16s intended originally for the Phantom, to which BMW agreed.

The updated body styling of the 101EX would serve as the basis for the Phantom Drophead Coupé and Phantom Coupé.

gollark: I've never actually ended up with spam problems, so maybe I would feel different if I *had*?
gollark: > If you had to pay 5 cents (or equivalent crypto, whichever is preferred) for every email you sent, would you?I would not. There's the obvious issue of mailing lists which you *want* to receive, but more significantly this would make me... not use email at all... since I don't have any work-y reasons to use it and can reach my friends by various other channels.
gollark: So apparently the issue is that I'm just misunderstanding Android, which has become increasingly convoluted for some reason. There are *two* `fastboot` things, each of which works slightly differently because of course.
gollark: Probably? I'm not entirely sure how Android's filesystem works because it's vaguely horrible even on correctly thingied devices.
gollark: Probably there actually is a system partition or something *there*, it's just not labelled/named properly.
