2008 Rolls-Royce Phantom Drophead Coupe

hot damn!
that sure is one classy ride!
i love the detail of them suicide doors...

very nice indeed, but i need the steering wheel on the other side seeing how i'm not a mailman

are there any specs on this yet? you might need a pretty big engine to move this "ship"

---- Specifications ----

Price
Rolls-Royce will build a four-seat, 2.5-ton, open-top coupe for $412,000. That’s the entry price, minus the teak decking ($7,000), the stainless-steel hood ($8,000), 21-inch chrome wheels ($6,250 per set) or any other options you can heap on it. So say you’re into it for $500,000, with destination, tax, license, gas-guzzler and title . .

Having owned a Shadow at one stage in my life, I would dearly love to have this one but am well aware of the pitfalls as well.
