This is the Rolls-Royce Phantom Drophead Coupe. Does anyone else think a coupe Rolls Royce is somewhat of a contradiction? Anyway, this one just sold for $2m (a shade over £1m) in a US charity auction, making it the most expensive car ever sold in the US. Or so the auctioneers claim.

It is also the first one sold there. The 2007 run of these is already sold out, but those owners will be paying the far more reasonable price of $407,000. I still think just over £200,000 is too expensive.

It may look like a cruise liner but it does house a 6.75litre V12 engine which can propel this particular boat to 60mph in under 6 seconds. More pics after the jump.-Martin Lynch
