Drophead Coupe, the Hyperion has been commissioned by British car collector Roland Hall.

The bodywork features carbon fiber while the doors are wooden as opposed to the aluminium spaceframe used in the factory Drophead Coupe.<\/p>\n<p>The Hyperion features a 6.75 liter naturally aspirated V12 engine that produces 460hp and 720Nm of torque while mated to a six-speed automatic transmission.<\/p>\n<p><object width=\"480\" height=\"270\"><param name=\"movie\" value=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/v\/ev0etAeXVd4?version=3&amp;hl=nl_NL\"><\/param><param name=\"allowFullScreen\" value=\"true\"><\/param><param name=\"allowscriptaccess\" value=\"always\"><\/param><embed src=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/v\/ev0etAeXVd4?version=3&amp;hl=nl_NL\" type=\"application\/x-shockwave-flash\" width=\"480\" height=\"270\" allowscriptaccess=\"always\" allowfullscreen=\"true\"><\/embed><\/object><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The design and coach-building house Pininfarina has given us some of the best looking cars of all time, such as the\u00a01933 Alfa Romeo 8C 2300, 1963 Chevrolet Corvair Super Spyder Coup\u00e9, 1984 Ferrari Testarossa, Ferrari 599 GTB Fiorano and Maserati Quattroporte.
