Beep Beep'm Beep Beep Yeah

The Rolls Royce Phantom given to Marlene Dietrich in 1930.

Before giving it to Dietrich, Paramount Studios commissioned a custom car body builder to turn it into a stylish convertible. One of the most expensive cars in the world at the time. The car still has a small shelf in the back with Dietrich's compact mirror and two bottles of perfume.


Dietrich, used the car in her first Hollywood movie, Morocco, in which she starred opposite Gary Cooper.
