It may be the most expensive new car ever sold. After four years of production and customization work, Rolls-Royce Motor Cars has revealed the Sweptail prior to its delivery to the luxury car and boat collector who commissioned the build. Priced at a reported $12.8 million.CEO, Rolls-Royce Motor Cars said, “Sweptail is a truly magnificent car. It exudes the romance of travel for its own sake, and immediately places ‘Sweptail’ in the pantheon of the world’s great intercontinental tourers. Rolls-Royce’s history as the world’s leading coachbuilder is at the very core of its identity as the world’s leading luxury brand.”Two key features of the Sweptail are its tapered, wood-paneled boat tail and the arching, dramatic, panoramic glass skylight stretching over the two-seat cockpit.While most people will focus on the $13 million figure, that's almost irrelevant when it comes to the Rolls-Royce Sweptail, a coachbuilt Phantom Coupé with a two-digit British license plate milled from ingots of aluminum and then hand polished for a mirror finish. At this level, $13 million is like $3 or $33 million. A number only your accountants need to pay attention to. The team responsible for your wellbeing will also make sure to compliment the way you decided to send off the biggest and now discontinued Rolls-Royce two-door. The Sweptail is memorable from any angle.Where do I even begin? I could point to the car’s reported cost and just end there. If the Rolls-Royce Sweptail does cost $13 million like it’s been reported, that’s more than enough to justify why the car is so special; it’s expensive as hell! The Rolls is one of the most expensive new cars in history as some have indicated, but that’s apparently the going rate now for a car that comes with a lot of firsts itself. Obviously, we’re not just going to end with the Sweptail’s insane price tag. Doing so would be an injustice to the level of craftsmanship that went into building the car. For us to really appreciate the Sweptail in all its glory, it’s important to look at it from all possible angles, beginning with the exterior.One look at it and it becomes evident that the Rolls-Royce Sweptail doesn’t look like anything from Rolls-Royce’s current model portfolio. It may be based on the Phantom Coupe, but there’s very little from that car’s design that was transferred to the Sweptail. Look at the model long enough and you might even convince yourself that it’s an entirely new model, even if it still carries the unmistakable Rolls-Royce DNA.
