Rolls-Royce Dawn
The Dawn convertible is one of the newest members of the Rolls-Royce family. It features a 6.6-litre, twin-turbocharged V12 engine that supplies 563 horsepower through an eight-speed automatic transmission. Meanwhile, its six-layer soft top folds away in just 20 seconds to reveal an interior appointed in the finest leather available. The Black Badge edition is easy to identify thanks to numerous black trim elements, including the grille and the Spirit of Ecstasy right above.
