Black Arrow is finished in a striking gradient paint finish, blending Celebration Silver and Black Diamond with a ‘glass-infused paint over layer’ to achieve a motion blur effect – this technique took 18 months to develop. In contrast to this, the lower air intakes, wheels and V-struts behind the radiator grille are finished in Bright Yellow, with its carbonfibre Spirit of Ecstasy also incorporating a yellow ring.
Alongside the engraved aluminium dashboard design, Rolls-Royce developed unique, tactile open-pore wood inserts for the interior door and rear seat panels, designed to mimic the surface of the Bonneville Salt Flats. The dash is also home to a bespoke clock face featuring references to the Thunderbolt's technical interior, with the sill plates also unique to the model.
Under the bonnet, its 6.6-litre twin-turbocharged V12 remains untouched from the ordinary Black Badge, producing the same 624bhp and 642lb ft of torque. Being the final V12 Rolls-Royce coupe, though, it does come with a bespoke plaque mounted on the engine cover. Just twelve examples will be delivered to customers around the globe later this year, with each one already spoken for.
