Holden Caprice SS Drag Races a Dodge Challenger SRT8

It may not be Tuesday but it’s a drag race nonetheless...so Happy Monday.
On a closed down strip of road somewhere in the middle of Saudi Arabia, two examples of pure American muscle battle it out in a classic drag race as the sun sets over the desert plains.
Cherry Red coated with a horizontal black line running from front to rear, the Dodge Challenger SRT8 looks the part and with its 6.4-liter V8 HEMI under the hood rated at 465hp and capable of 0-60mph in 4.5 seconds, backs up its good looks with scintillating performance.The Holden Caprice SS on the other hand is more Q-car than supercar killer, with understated sedan features married to a 360-hp 6.0-liter V8 engine. The car is currently used by Middle East police forces such as the Dubai Police Force and Royal Oman Police, while stateside, better known as the Pontiac G8 (RIP), a specially-equipped version has entered service as a Police Patrol Vehicle.

The Golden Royal Rolls-Royce Phantom Drophead Coupe

Nothing like a golden Rolls-Royce from Saudi Arabia.
Hosam Al-Ghamdi has captured one of the prettiest Rolls-Royce Phantom Drophead Coupes we have ever seen. Gold might not be your thing, but this special order, customized exterior/interior model does the color right. Al-Ghamdi calls this the "Golden Royal," and after one look you can see why.The fully-bespoke Rolls is currently on display at the Ibn Mansi Showroom in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia.

It is up for sale, so if your pockets are flush with dough this Rolls-Royce is most definitely a go.Thanks to Hosam for the great photos!
