Detroit Auto Show: Rolls Royce Cabriolet

Rolls-Royce is set to take the wraps off a new convertible at the Detroit Motor Show less than two weeks from now, and have leaked a few photos to get our Spirits of Ecstasy flying. Although the name is not yet officially known, most insiders predict a revival of the Corniche nameplate for this grand cabriolet that picks up where the show-stopping 100EX concept car left off in 2004.

It all depends on how you define "quality". If you define it by price and apparent luxury, then RR is on top. If you define it as lack of defects, then I don't know where RR stands.

According to the info I found, RR does not make a sufficient number of cars to form statistically meaningful "defect" numbers (according to J.D. Powers).

My next car, I think $400,000 Rolls Royce customers aim a little higher than a Lexus, People with Rolls Royce money think about yachts and jets. So keep your Lexus to your low class self EL 34.
