1975 Rolls-Royce Camargue
When it was launched, the Camargue, which was the flagship of the Rolls-Royce lineup, was the most expensive production car in the world, eventually selling in North America for approximately US$147,000 ($588,000 in 2008 dollars).
By the time of its official U.S. launch, the Carmargue had already been on sale in the UK for over a year.
The New York Times made much of the fact that the U.S. price at this stage was approximately $15,000 higher than the UK price.
In the 1970s, many European models retailed for significantly less in the U.S. than they did in Europe in order to compete with prices set aggressively by Detroit’s Big Three and Japanese importers.
The manufacturer rejected this approach with the Carmargue, referencing the high cost of safety and pollution engineering needed to adapt the few cars (approximately 30 per year) it expected to send to North America in 1976.
