This special Spectre is the work of an Atlanta-based dealer
The Rolls-Royce Spectre isn’t exactly a car that blends into the background. That’s difficult to do in a lavish electric coupe that’s longer than a Cadillac Escalade. It has all the presence expected of a Rolls and its jaw-dropping starting price of around $400,000.
But while a standard Rolls-Royce would be more than enough for most of us, Road Show International – a dealer in Atlanta that also does customizations – has created an even more special Spectre, dubbed the Spectre RS Edition. For better or worse, this one will turn even more heads than a standard Spectre, and its color scheme is precisely the opposite of what you’d expect from the Spectre Black Badge.

Rolls-Royce Spectre RS Edition

While tuners like Mansory prefer Rolls-Royces to have garish colors or unique finishes such as this granite-esque Cullinan, this Spectre RS starts things off on a tamer note with its Linen/white paint job. It’s the many details that make the RS stand out, though.
Immediately noticeable is the lowered suspension and the enormous 24-inch wheels with a glossy, Satin finish in the same Linen white. This is one of the only cars in the world that likely still rides comfortably on 24s.
Elsewhere, the RS features a smoked finish for the lights, colormatch window trim, and a two-tone gloss tag frame. Everything that can be done to give the car the most gleaming, protective finish has been done. It has a PPF satin clear finish for the whole body, ceramic paint coating protection, and a nano-ceramic window tint that extends to the windshield. The bright white paint and white details are completely different to the moody look of the Spectre Black Badge.
While not everyone will approve of a dropped Rolls-Royce, there’s no denying that the RS Edition is a looker.
Interior: You Can Have Any Color As Long As It’s Red

If the exterior paint wasn’t bold enough for you, the Rojo interior should do the trick. This deep, evocative red is found almost all over the cabin, from the seats to the door panels, steering wheel, dashboard, and center console.
The red is relieved somewhat by black accents, a wood insert on the dashboard, and inserts on the doors that mirror the effect of the Starlight Headliner. Road Show International didn’t provide much detail on how the interior was customized beyond what we can see in the images, but it’s clear that the brand’s usual unparalleled quality and attention to detail is on full display. From the rich upholstery to the ornate switches on the dashboard, it’s a lovely place to sit if the intense color scheme doesn’t send you running for the hills.
This RS Edition has already been sold to a lucky customer. No modifications have been made to the powertrain, which means dual electric motors making 577 horsepower and 664 lb-ft of torque. Independent tests have timed the Spectre reaching 60 in under four seconds, so it’s one of the most comfortable ways to embarrass unsuspecting 911 drivers.
With all the extras, we’re pretty sure this RD Edition’s price easily exceeds $450,000 or so.
