The Phantom reminds me of something I myself might have scribbled out on a piece of paper and labeled " concept Rolls-Royce ". As far as the armoured tank asthetic goes, I'm feeling it. It's the same sort of look that the Chrysler 300 is going for, which is to say stately, dignified and possibly proper. When done right, this is the end result.
It's been a long time coming for new cars that exude that feeling. Not aggressive, not mean, just composed. It's a breath of fresh air, and thats' why the 300 is so hot. If you can understand the Phantom's asthetic for what it is supposed to represent, which is classic British elegance, combined with Germanic solidity - then it becomes easier to appreciate it's appearance.
