During the 2016 Geneva Motor Show, Rolls-Royce unveiled its Black Badge model, a high-end model leaning towards a younger upwardly mobile crowd.

Now, the company has outdone itself, bringing a new take on the model to the 2017 Goodwood Festival of Speed: Dawn Black Badge, an open-top, which could be Darth Vader’s choice of ride when the TIE fighter is in the shop.

The Dawn Black Badge packs a 6.6-liter twin-turbo V12 engine, which explodes to a breathtaking 593 total bhp (i.e. brake horsepower).

As Hypebeast notes, a regular Dawn retails for about $340,000, so the Dawn Black Badge will likely sell in the $400,000 range.

Take a look at a teaser video of the Dawn Black Badge below.
