The Drophead showcases four seats, two doors and some design elements from the 100EX, an experimental concept convertible from 2004. One of the most interesting of these elements are the brushed steel hood and A-Pillars, which are machined before being hand-finished for a perfect luster. Additionally, teak decking is installed in the rear- treated with a blend of oils to maintain a long-lasting finish.
The fabric roof is the largest of any production convertible. It's lined with cashmere and engineered to fit in as tiny a space as possible, while multi-layer construction ensures quiet operation. Luggage is handled by a split-tail compartment which opens in two parts like a picnic basket, and the lower part of the tailgate transforms into a comfortable seat for two when lowered.The Phantom Drophead Coupé will be on sale later this year.Rolls-Royce also confirmed the arrival of a "base" car by the end of this decade. As well, the high-end company was proud to announce that 2006 was their best year in total sales in 16 years with 805 cars being delivered.
