The brainchild of three die-hard fans and the esteemed marque?s new Coachbuild program, the Boat Tail is one of Rolls-Royce?s most interesting models to date. Crafted using a traditional technique known as coachbuilding, the new automotive takes cues from the hull of a J-class yacht, with the nautical influence clearly seen in its distinctive rear end. Like any Rolls-Royce, it?s packed with a range of exquisite features serving to enhance the car?s beauty and user enjoyment. While Rolls-Royce has traditionally been very discreet with the prices of their bespoke vehicles, talk on the road is that it?s a serious competitor for the title of most expensive car in the world, which is currently held by Bugatti?s La Voiture Noire.
