Matte white Rolls-Royce Dawn with the roof down on a Beverly Hills street

Paint That Does Not Shine

Matte White Rolls-Royce Dawn

Four seats, no roof, and a finish that refuses to reflect anything — the quietest way to spend two thousand a day.

A gloss Rolls-Royce reflects the street back at it. This one absorbs it.

The Dawn is the four-seat convertible in the range: the same architecture as the Wraith with the roof taken off and two proper seats left in the back. Ours is matte white over red, and the matte is the whole point.

Matte white Rolls-Royce Dawn in profile with the roof down
01Roof down, the deck behind the rear seats is almost as long as the bonnet in front of them. Nothing about the proportions is an accident.

Matte paint is a strange thing to spend money on. It costs more, it cannot be machine polished, and it looks like primer to anybody who does not know what they are looking at. What it does is remove every reflection from the bodywork, so instead of a moving mirror you get shape — the long bonnet, the fall of the flank, the way the deck runs flat to the tail.

Underneath the surface it is the ordinary miracle: a roof that folds away in about twenty seconds, doors that close themselves, and enough space behind the front seats that the back is not a gesture. Red hides against white paint is the loudest thing about it, and it is inside.

Queries

How much does it cost to rent a Rolls-Royce Dawn in Los Angeles?
The matte white Dawn is $2,200 a day. The day rate is the whole of it on this car — there is no weekly or monthly block, so a longer booking is priced day by day. Delivery to our Beverly Hills partner hotels is complimentary.
Does it really seat four?
Yes, and that is the difference between it and most convertibles at this money. Two proper seats behind the front pair, with legroom rather than a shelf.
Is matte paint delicate?
It is looked after differently rather than more carefully — no machine polish, no wax. We hand it over detailed and we deal with the finish; nothing about it changes how you drive the car.
How far ahead should I book it?
It is one of the most-booked cars in the fleet through the summer. Name the date early and it is held for you.

The terms, before you commit

Refundable deposit
$2,000
A hold, not a charge. Back with you 5–7 business days after the car is home.
Damage and liability cover
$225 a day
Mandatory, and priced off the deposit rather than the rate. Your own qualifying full-coverage policy takes this line out of the quote entirely.
Driver, 21–24
$175 a day
Twenty-one is the floor, with a licence held two years. The higher band applies above a $1,500 deposit; this car is in it.
Shortest booking
24 hours
No maximum. Delivery is complimentary at our Robertson Boulevard lot and our four Beverly Hills partner hotels; LAX is $75 to the parking structure or $150 to the terminal, each way.

This one is the same rate at every length — it carries no multi-day block, so three days is three times one day. We would rather say that than imply a discount that is not there.
