2013 Rolls-Royce Phantom Drophead Coupe For Sale in St Louis , 2146378323 Tweet

Rolls-Royces revival of the Phantom name marked the seventh time in the companys history that it graced their flagship offering. Upon debut the all-new Phantom represented a huge leap forward with bold styling that was unmistakable as a Rolls-Royce while simultaneously fresh and modern. Considering the last 60s-era Phantom VI was produced in 1990 the new Phantom VII looked like it came from another dimension! The Phantom (its official name) was the first new car developed from the ground-up under the guidance of its parent company BMW and it was the most technologically advanced Rolls-Royce to date. It required the skilled craftspeople at the new Goodwood assembly plant a minimum of 260 hours to build each car - compared to about 25 hours for the average mass-produced vehicle.In 2007 Rolls-Royce unveiled the Phantom Drophead Coupe as a companion to the saloon. The new four-passenger Drophead took inspiration from the striking 100EX concept car including its smoother front-end styling and distinctive rear-hinged doors. The fabric soft-top was a nod to tradition with the practical function of affording a roomier boot compared to a heavy bulky folding hardtop. Of course Rolls-Royce ensured the Phantom Drophead had adequate performance to suit its presence. The turbocharged 6.75-litre V12 makes 454 horsepower and a veritable ocean of torque moving the 5776-pound Drophead along with startling efficiency. With a base price of over $400000 and seemingly endless array of personalization options it was indeed a fitting flagship worthy of its storied name. Production was quite limited with estimates putting the total at fewer than 2000 cars built from 2009-2012 in original form and the revised improved series II from late 2012-2017.
