Rolls-Royce is known for offering all kinds of bespoke personalization options for its models, and its latest build doesn’t disappoint. The Rolls-Royce Spectre Semaphore is a one-off version of the EV, featuring a special paint, and a unique artwork on its hood. The model takes its name from the Bespoke Semaphore Yellow color of the bodywork. However, the most eye-catching feature is the “Marbled Paint Spill” hood. The company describes the artwork as an “abstract tribute to the Golden State and its diverse environment”, and claims it was inspired by the “informal elegance of coastal California“.

The result looks like someone spilled paint on the Spectre’s nose, and then drove on twisty roads. However, the process was a lot more complicated than that, with Rolls-Royce employees applying silver lacquer and multiple layers of clearcoat, to achieve a “seamless finish”. In the end, over 160 hours were spent in the design, development, and production of the hood alone, showing that individuality takes time and patience.

 

The interior follows the bright-colored theme of the exterior, with a tasteful combination of Bespoke Lemon Yellow and Citrine Yellow for the upholstery, and matching dials on the instrument cluster. The different hues of yellow are joined by milder Grace White and Slate Grey accents. The wood inserts on the dashboard are painted in a Cashmere Grey shared, infused with silver mica flakes. Finally, the door sills are adorned by a Pebble Beach 2024 Special Commission plaque, next to the production stamp from the Goodwood factory.

As is the case with most bespoke builds, the underpinnings of the Rolls-Royce Spectre remain intact. The fully electric powertrain produces 577 hp and 895 Nm of torque, sourcing energy from a 120 kWh battery pack. The latter is good for 428 km of range, so you can freely exhibit your “Marbled Paint Spill” around town. The Rolls-Royce Spectre Semaphore will be exhibited at The Quail, A Motorsports Gathering, on August 16, as part of the 2024 Monterey Car Week in California. As is the case with most bespoke Rolls Royces, the carmaker didn’t reveal any pricing details, but it’s safe to assume that the Semaphore added a few zeroes to the Spectre’s MSRP.
