look. This is now the most expensive new car in the world strange

The name alone is reminiscent of heaven: Arcadia Droptail is named after a mystical and paradisiacal land dreamed of by the ancient Greeks. This convertible dream car was designed for an unnamed customer who was closely involved in its creation. No wonder considering the price.

The car was unveiled in Singapore during a special meeting. The owner has not been revealed. This is clearly a special car. The wooden deck surface on the back panel is reminiscent of an elegant luxury yacht. The dashboard and other interior parts are also made of wood and of course all handcrafted.

The Rolls-Royce Arcadia Droptail features a sumptuous white body, studded with aluminum and glass particles that create the illusion of an infinite palette, while the gray-painted carbon bonnet, the only car to have it, belies everything. The grille and massive 22-inch wheels are completely polished to a mirror finish. In the passenger compartment is the most complex clock ever made by Rolls-Royce.

In addition to the white and brown leather upholstery, the most striking thing about the Arcadia is the wood fittings. Rolls-Royce explained in its press release that the painting process took more than 8,000 man-hours, including the production, painting and installation of 233 pieces of wood, 76 of which were for the rear deck alone.

And if that's not enough, the material used is said to be “Santos Straight Grain”, which is known to be very brittle when used. The varnish has been developed specifically for this valuable wood, so that it can withstand all climates, including tropical ones. Another attraction of this impeccable convertible is the dashboard. It is the most complex watch ever made by Rolls-Royce, consisting of 119 raw metal faces in a geometric pattern.

Assembling the famous clock required at least five months of work, after a two-year design phase. The Rolls-Royce Arcadia Droptail is powered by a 6.75-litre V12 engine from Rolls-Royce itself, which produces over 600 hp. It is enough to accelerate from 0 to 100 km/h in five seconds. Fast, but not bloody fast. And why, because performance isn't the main focus of this English convertible.

The new price is said to be 28.5 million euros, but you get a body in which the engineers used carbon fiber inspired by Formula 1 race cars. The most expensive car in the world currently is the Boat Tail, also made by Rolls-Royce, and has a sales price of 26 million euros. This luxury convertible is also built with yacht-like features. The owner is the son of a pearl maker, who did not wish to reveal his name.
