The Rolls-Royce Sweptail is many things, one-off and record-setter being two of them. The car was commissioned by a wealthy customer at a price of almost $13 million. It took four years to build, with the end result being a one-of-a-kind luxury two-door. The Rolls-Royce Sweptail's unique look comes from its owners love of yachts and his fascination with the automaker's cars from the 1920s and 1930s.
The Rolls-Royce Sweptail gets its atypical rear end from its owners love of yachts while its overall classic aesthetic was pulled from Rollers past. Unlike those classic cars, this one-off has a panoramic glass roof that runs the entire length of the car. Other awesome features include built-in luggage and laptop storage bins. Both the case and luggage are made from leather-wrapped carbon fiber, naturally. The Rolls-Royce Sweptail also has a champagne bar built into its center console that deploys at the push of a button.
