The ornament was designed by local jeweler Jean Kemanjian on behalf of Manhattan Motorcars. Speaking with The Epoch Times, Kemanjian said his latest work was created as a “tribute to the car itself."
It features a paved surface of diamonds, laid out in a similar fashion to bathroom tiles except this is the most expensive surface you can create known to man, Kemanjian explained. "What we did was to add 150 carats of D color VVS1 quality diamonds and some fancy intense yellow diamonds on the wings."
This is the only example of a diamond-studded Spirit of Ecstasy in existence and for now it will remain the property of the dealership that commissioned. However, we suspect there will be a number of interested buyers with bottomless pockets.

Because the regular RR doesn't say *TASTELESS* quite loud enough.

Exactly! It's hard to tell whether this monstrosity would make a current Roller look better or worse. It will certainly be stolen quickly (Manhatten...).
