The Rolls-Royce Camargue is a 2 -door coupe introduced by Rolls-Royce Motors in March 1975. The Camargue, which was the flagship of the Rolls-Royce lineup, was the most expensive production car in the world, eventually selling in North America for about US$147,000. By the time of its official US launch the Carmargue had already been on sale in the UK for over a year and the New York Times made much of the fact that the US price at this stage was approximately $15,000 higher than the UK price. In the 1970s many European models retailed for significantly less in the US than in Europe, in order to compete with prices set aggressively by Detroit’s Big Three and Japanese importers.
