With just 25 examples produced, the Rolls-Royce Corniche S represents the ultimate and most exclusive evolution of a model that defined automotive luxury for generations. Marking, in many respects, the final chapter of traditional Rolls-Royce coachbuilding itself, the Corniche S celebrated the companys signature elegance while introducing a turbocharged version of its celebrated 6.75-liter V-8, producing 385 horsepower and 530 pound-feet of torque for effortless, yet commanding acceleration. Accompanied by the expected abundance of sumptuous Connolly leather, rich walnut veneers, and Wilton carpets, the Corniche S seamlessly blended handcrafted luxury with performance suited to the approaching millennium.

Finished in Aurora over Parchment upholstery, this example number 7 of just 25 produced spent much of its life in Palm Beach, Florida, where its deep blue-green metallic finish is perfectly suited to the refined coastal setting, shifting with the light to evoke the shimmering waters and clear skies that define one of Americas most prestigious seaside enclaves. Paired with its light and inviting Parchment leather hides, accented by Magnolia piping and deep Conifer carpeting, this Corniche embodies an era when automotive luxury was defined not by technology alone, but by craftsmanship, taste, and an unmistakable sense of occasion that accompanied every drive.

The car most recently received a comprehensive mechanical sorting in 2025 by the marque specialists at Gordon Dale Enterprises in Surrey, UK. Accompanying invoices document a thorough inspection and road test, followed by attention to the air conditioning system, drive belts, braking system, wheel bearings, and careful tuning of the steering and suspension. Showing just 22,091 miles at the time of cataloguing, this well-preserved example has clearly been cherished more as a prized heirloom than simply an automobile.

Far more than simply a luxurious convertible, the Corniche S is the final flourish of a legendary era, representing the pinnacle of hand-built Rolls-Royce craftsmanship before the curtain fell on a chapter of classic automotive excellence that will never be seen again.
