The World's Fastest Rolls-Royce

Spotted at the SEMA (Specialty Equipment Marketing Assoc.) auto show in Las Vegas this week was this highly-modified 1970 Rolls-Royce Silver Shadow, which at 1350 hp. is far and away the world's fastest Rolls-Royce. Owned by a Floridian enthusiast, the car is powered by a 9.3-liter supercharged V8 with a nitrous injection system, air suspension and bespoke chassis. There's a full custom leather interior, including the trunk which has fitted luggage and a TV set - one of four positioned inside the toally unique vehicle. Experts estimate the cost of the modifications at over $300,000.

I'm sorry, but RR is not car for "pimp my ride".

Pimp my ride equals electronics and accessories for looks, never for performance. This car was taken a bit further then just "pimp my ride" and I wouldn't mind having a ride in it.

If I had a 1970 Silver Shadow, it would be the first thing I cut up.

Fox, sorry but I have not explained well, I did not want to diminish the excellent work done, but my personally idea is that RR is a classic car and I can not see it otherwise, as well as Bentley, Ferrari or Bugatti.
