2007 Detroit Auto Show: Rolls-Royce Drophead Coupe

Don’t let the name fool you, this is the all-new Rolls-Royce convertible that will have the movers and shakers of Rodeo Drive and Palm Beach rushing to their local exotic dealership to place their orders. The gorgeous ragtop — yep, it has a canvas top, the world’s largest — will go into production this summer with a 6.75-liter V-12 engine capable of 0-60 mph in 5.7 seconds. The price for such beauty and exclusivity? If you have to ask, it’s too much. Actually, the estimated price of $350,000 – $400,000 does seem a bit much, even for this piece of automotive art. We expect Rolls-Royce to sell every one they make.

We’ll see more of the Drophead Coupe at next week’s Detroit auto show but for now, check out more photos below.
