Making its debut in 2007 at the North American International Auto Show, the Phantom Drophead Coupe is currently in its second generation, with the British luxury brand having unveiled the Series II in 2013. Updates included changes to the exterior cosmetics, enhanced cabin equipment, and improved fuel economy.
This $474,600 vehicle is one of the most expensive Rolls models available, but that hasn't stopped the marque from creating several special editions that cost even more, just in case, you know, the standard car won't cut it at the yacht club.
The latest example is the "Nighthawk," offered exclusively to North American customers. Part of the Rolls-Royce Bespoke customization program, this ultra-luxury convertible was first seen on public roads in Phoenix during the lavish events of the rich and famous during Super Bowl XLIX. Only nine units will be created.
Rolls-Royce says the design was "inspired by stealth technology in modern aerospace development," but clearly, the car doesn't blend into the background. Even with dark paint and minor exterior changes, the Phantom Nighthawk commands attention, especially when you take a peek at the transformed interior.
