Rolls-Royce Dawn

Well I have witnessed dawn from a Rolls-Royce.

The new Rolls-Royce Dawn to be unveiled at Frankfurt next week will be an interesting car.

Dawn is a beautiful new open-top motor car with a name that suggests the fresh opportunities that every new day holds.

An old name from the original Crewe Rolls-Royce archives...

But very few convertibles.

The original Rolls-Royce Silver Dawn was the first standard steel bodied car from Crewe.

Then it became an 'economy' version of a Silver Spur with leather an vinyl trim mix.

But now the new Goodwood Rolls-Royce has the dawn of the new Dawn.

Basically a Wraith Drophead coupé.

Here are some renderings and spy shots:

So the question is....will Tony Orlando order one?

Can't wait to see it next week.
