Wood Exterior, the Proper Way.

Rolls Royce Phantom Drophead Coupe

Wood exterior? No, my friends, this is not another trial replica of Chrysler’s …interesting… PTCruiser.   Inspired by 1930’s racing yachts, the Phantom Drophead Coupe is trimmed with teak wood, spanning from the rear level to the front side panels of each passenger’s top door. The teak reaches and touches upon a brushed steel surface that gives the car a yacht-like experience. Floor mats of woven sisal and a fabric convertible top only add to the fun spirit of this model. The only criticism arising from this particular model is the teak wood rather needy, requiring a great deal of maintenance.

 “If the Phantom sedan is for the guy in the three piece suit, the Drophead is for his pleasure-seeking brother in the Hawaiian shirt,” says duPont Registry’s Exotic Car. With that said, $448,000 isn’t such a heavy price on this desired excitement.
