Who would have guessed that Lady Gaga had good taste for classic cars. Recent reports indicate that the American pop singer will auction her 1990 Rolls-Royce Corniche III at a charity auction this month. The red two-door convertible was owned by Lady Gaga and the title certificate for the car is registered to her full name – Stefani Germanotta – and father, Joseph.
Yes, it could be yours, if you are willing to part with a lot of cash because the starting bid for the car will be £30,000. According to the report, 100% of the sale of the the vehicle will be given to MusiCares, a non-profit charity for struggling artists.
The auction is being held at Julien’s Auctions of California, but it’s actually taking place in New York. If you want to check the Corniche out, it will be on display at the Hard Rock Cafe located in Times Square throughout the week. Well, of course, if you happen to be there.
The Corniche was originally development based on the Rolls-Royce Silver Shadow, with the two-door variants of that model marketed as the Silver Shadow Mulliner Park Ward two-door fixed head coupe and drop head coupe. The model was assembled and finished at Mulliner Park Ward as continuation of the 1965 Silver Shadow coupe and 1967 Drophead, with the Corniche name applied in March 1971. The Corniche was also sold as a Bentley, though that model became known as the Continental in 1984.
