2011 Rolls-Royce Drophead Coupé Bijan Edition


 
  Review 
 
   

Almost a year ago at the 2010 LA Auto Show, world-renowned designer Bijan Pakzad struck a partnership with British luxury brand Rolls-Royce to design a limited number of rare Rolls-Royce Phantom Drophead Coupes that would be appropriately called the ‘Bijan Edition.’

Unfortunately, the designer was not able to see his work come to life after his unexpected death last April due to a heart attack. Despite his passing on, the Rolls-Royce project continued on and recently, the first of these special edition models was unveiled in front of Bijan’s luxury boutique in Beverly Hills, California.

The luxury Phantom Drophead Coupe, in so many words, has Bijan’s imprint all over it. From the unmistakable bright yellow color of the luxury sedan all the way to the touches of white diamonds embedded in the wood veneer dashboard and the set of crystal glasses tucked in a picnic set in the trunk, the Rolls-Royce Phantom Bijan Edition speaks to the taste and lifestyle of the late, great designer.

While its easy to get mesmerized by the car, it’s also worth noting that this particular Phantom also carries a 6.75-liter V12 engine that produces in excess of 450 horsepower. According to Bijan executives, the plan for the ultra rare Phantom Bijan Edition is to have at least a dozen of them built with each set to be priced from anywhere between $850,000 all the way up to $1.6 million.

Knowing the man and his impeccable taste in cars, there’s a good chance that Bijan Pakzad, wherever he is, is looking down on this car with that million-dollar smile on his face.

Where has Rolls Royce’s fashion gone to? Only its massive built seems luxurious, but its design, especially its paint job, is negatively outrageous.

Whoa! With a car like this, you don’t need a bling anymore. It’s worthy to spend millions for a car like this.

I’m amazed with its all yellow touch, from the exterior to its interior even on its wheels. I wonder if it’s a good-looking car in person. Anyway, it didn’t look like a luxury car for me, but I must say that I’m impressed with its engine. Very impressive car. The door of the car is unique and I like the style. This car is great. I’m sure this car is heavy weight than the other car. Luxury cars like this is one of the best car for me.

I’m really captivated with the design of the car. The detailing on the vehicle is quite aggressive as well, Very futuristic car and because of this I think being unique and different in terms of exterior detailing and interior design to other vehicles gives unconditional attention.

I love the looks of this Aston Martin,which is i like the interior design it looks like an sports car. I also noticed that it looks more elegant and perfect with the design of its side rim. Moreover, I’m glad that it is on an efficient engine. Luxury cars like this is one of the best car for me.

The car looks pretty because of its body paint. But if they put out the yellow paint on it, it will look like a foul. But i Have to say that though this is bulky as it seems, the car has a good specs.

It really looks so long and bulky to be a luxury vehicle or a limousine and I truly didn’t find as well like that. However, I absolutely find it very exciting and fun to drive with because on its V12 engine.
