Though it is a storied brand with 109 years of history, Rolls-Royce has been able to remain timeless through constant reinvention, and their newest release is a testament to that fact. In reinventing their history, the marque is calling back to one of their rarest creations, the 1952 Rolls-Royce Silver Dawn. As a press release issued May 12 introducing the vehicle describes, the name "Dawn" was used between 1949 and 1954 on only 28 examples. The original Silver Dawn was the first car from the marque to be offered with a factory-built body, and each of the 28 was built to order for individual customers.
