Given the true scale 1/43 dimensions of the Kyosho brand, the model has to be the largest coupe in my collection, As usual, the level of detaining and exquisite craftsmanship is there at the same level as the brand's 1/18 scale. Despite having a plastic underbody, it is heavy and does not feel as plasticky as the Greenlight models. I had wanted a silver hood and light blue body, but a white is just as gorgeous, making it appear even larger.
Here's a comparative with another true-scale models from Kyosho, a 2018 Bentley Continental GT and a 70s Mercedes Benz 280 SE covered convertible.
The real Rolls Royce Phantom Drophead Coupe that debuted in this design at the Geneva Auto show in 2008 and marketed at $440,000 for the 2009 model. A subjective review is at https://driving.ca/rolls-royce/phantom/reviews/road-test/road-test-2009-rolls-royce-phantom-coupe-2
