On a mission to buy the best cupcakes in Los Angeles I wound up driving down Rodeo Drive due to my navigators lack of ability to get me on Santa Monica Blvd. in Beverly Hills due to it’s confusing nature. We swung down Rodeo Drive and spotted this gorgeous yet obnoxious yellow Rolls Royce.
After doing some homework it appears the car is owned by Iranian-American business owner Bijan Pakzad who owns a boutique on Rodeo. The store is available by appointment only and is known as the most expensive store in the world.
The Rolls Royce is a very popular luxury car of choice in the United Arab Emirates and who could blame anyone for choosing this huge machine? This white Rolls Royce above is seen exiting the one way street from the only seven star hotel in the world placed off the shore of Dubai. The Burj Al Arab stands off the shore looking like a huge sail and attracts some of the nicest cars in the world if you have some time to car spot.
Day 1 is now complete which was a fairly small leg of 250 miles. We started at the Santa Monica Pier and made a swing through Orange County for the D1GP event. After leaving Orange County it was a straight dash up I-15 to Las Vegas, Nevada. We have some great photos of the Brabus Mercedes SL, purple Audi R8, the Bugatti’s and much much more!
With the 2009 Gumball Rally just around the corner we have to relive some of the year’s past greatest moments. In this video from the 2006 European Rally you will find a camo Rolls Royce slam into a guardrail at full speed destroying the machine. A Ferrari Enzo spinning out and a Bentley flying off the side of the road. Get ready for a wild ride in 2009 as the drivers travel from Los Angeles to Miami.
I have seen some obnoxious and overdone Louis Vuitton vehicle collaborations in my time but this one takes the cake. John Jarasa, the editors of Heavy Hitters Magazine, posted this on his blog. Hopefully a new issue of Heavy Hitters will have some more shots of this Rolls Royce so we can really check out the wrap.
The boxer Floyd “Money” Mayweather takes us on a tour of his car garage with like 7 random dudes standing around him for the whole video. For some reason he feels the need to put his name on the back of his cars which I somewhat find hilarious and you will see a clip of it within the video. He also uses this tour to talk smack on De La Hoya and various other people including all his haters. This video is amazing in some manner, that is for sure.
Floyd Mayweather’s Car Collection:
Maybach 62
Mercedes McLaren SLR
Rolls Royce Drophead Coupe
Limited Stretch Rolls Royce
Lamborghini Gallardo Spyder
It appears Rolls Royce just delivered a custom one off Phantom hardtop to a resident in the United Kingdom who requested it in gold. The car has a two tone scheme with gold on top and a black bottom along with gold center pieces in the wheels. A very interesting one off limited edition Rolls Royce. The only real shocker to this car in our book is that it’s not sitting in Dubai right now.
While it’s exciting to see one Rolls Royce Drophead coupe on occasion we find it’s always more exciting to find two of them at the same time. Our Flickr buddy Trasoworld Photography from France just slapped this up the other day and we had to share it. The shade of white on the right Rolls Royce looks just a tad better than the other as well.
This amazing matte black Rolls Royce Phantom looks killer. They even killed the amazing emblem with a flat finish. Specialty Car Craft in Los Angeles did this production and they are boasting it is the first flat black Rolls Royce in the United States. Either way, we love it and want two. What an entourage that would be through Hollywood on a Friday night. Enjoy the video from streetfire and if you want to find out more about the builders you can visit them here.
