By now, anybody who's spent enough time on the automotive side of the word wide web is familiar with the fact that messing with Rolls-Royces has become a trend. Sure, given the exclusivity and costs associated with Goodwood machines, this trend is still defined by very few examples, but the conclusion mentioned above still stands.
The latest example of the sort comes from the virtual world, as we're dealing with a pickup truck incarnation of the Rolls-Royce Ghost.
The starting point for this contraption was the Ghost Series II model you can currently find in showrooms, with digital artist Rain Prisk being the one behind the stunt.
And, judging by the kind of real-world Rolls-Royce customisation examples we've shown you in 2016, as well as this year, the pixel play we have here actually seems surprisingly restrained.
For one thing, the machine isn't pictured glued to the road, but, when asked about the matter on his Facebook page, the artist did admit he had done more than just think about such a move.
"It was lowered to the ground, but 15 minutes before uploading the picture I decided to raise it, a lot," Rain Prisk explained.
Now, as for the said real-world examples of tuned RRs, the most extreme one has to be Jon Olsson's Wraith. Nicknamed George, the massive coupe has been given a complex aftermarket transformation, one that saw the 6.6-liter V12 monster under the hood climbing all the way to 810 ponies.
And the Quicksilver exhaust of the thing allows the machine to scream like no other Roller in the world. Did we mention the camouflage wrap covering the car and the roof rack?
Then there's the Rolls-Royce Silver Shadow drift car, a sliding machine that used to be raced by Boyzone's Shane Lynch (warning: purists would better not click the link).
