Rolls-Royce Dawn
The Dawn is a brand-new cabriolet version of the Wraith coupe, which replaces the Drophead Coupé. The dignified hood overhangs the brand's famous mascot, covering a 563-horsepower, 6.6-litre twin-turbo V12. These thoroughbreds are sent to the wheels via an eight-speed automatic gearbox and the fine leathers come from German bulls. Don't bother running to the dealership, as all the Dawns allotted to Canada for 2017 are already sold.
