The luxury vehicle, encased in a protective iron cage, was lifted high above the city by a <a href=\"https:\/\/moderncarcollector.com\/adrian-portellis-koenigsegg-jesko-attack\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:crane;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" class=\"link \">crane<\/a>, drawing widespread attention.<\/p>\n<p class=\"col-body mb-4 leading-7 text-[18px] md:leading-8 break-words min-w-0\">The <a href=\"https:\/\/moderncarcollector.com\/miami-beach-police-department-adds-a-rolls-royce-ghost-to-its-fleet\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:Rolls-Royce Ghost;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" class=\"link \">Rolls-Royce Ghost<\/a>, a masterpiece of engineering with a starting price of $350,000, weighs approximately 2.7 tons. Transporting it to such an unusual location required meticulous planning. The car was secured inside a custom-built iron cage to shield it from potential damage during its ascent. Once lifted, it was gently placed onto the penthouse terrace, where a team of workers ensured its safe positioning.<\/p>\n<p class=\"col-body mb-4 leading-7 text-[18px] md:leading-8 break-words min-w-0\">The motivation behind this extravagant endeavor was the owner&#8217;s desire to use the car as a centerpiece in his penthouse. While many people showcase art or sculptures, this billionaire chose to spotlight his prized luxury vehicle, turning it into a unique ornamental display.<\/p>\n<p class=\"col-body mb-4 leading-7 text-[18px] md:leading-8 break-words min-w-0\">This feat is not the first of its kind. Similar operations have been undertaken by other affluent car enthusiasts. Australian Adrian Portelli famously lifted a McLaren Senna GTR to his 57th-floor penthouse, while a McLaren Elva found its way to the 48th floor of a luxury tower in Seattle.<\/p>\n<p class=\"col-body mb-4 leading-7 text-[18px] md:leading-8 break-words min-w-0\">Although the Rolls-Royce Ghost will no longer grace the roads, it now enjoys a commanding view of the cityscape from its new perch. For its owner, the vehicle\u2019s presence on the terrace is a symbol of luxury, blending art, design, and engineering in a breathtaking spectacle.<\/p>\n<p class=\"col-body mb-4 leading-7 text-[18px] md:leading-8 break-words min-w-0\">This unusual display serves as a reminder of how the ultra-rich redefine extravagance, transforming even practical objects like cars into opulent symbols of status and personal expression.<\/p>\n<p class=\"col-body mb-4 leading-7 text-[18px] md:leading-8 break-words min-w-0\"><b>Follow us on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/profile.php?id=61556333135382\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:Facebook;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" class=\"link \">Facebook<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/moderncarnews\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:Twitter;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" class=\"link \">Twitter<\/a><\/b><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><script async src=\"\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/autos.yahoo.com\/chinese-billionaire-cranes-rolls-royce-183000813.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Read the full story on Modern Car Collector Chinese Billionaire Cranes Rolls-Royce Ghost to 44th-Floor Penthouse In an extraordinary display of wealth<br \/><button class=\"read-more\"><a href=\"https:\/\/newssprinters.com\/index.php\/world\/chinese-billionaire-cranes-rolls-royce-ghost-to-44th-floor-penthouse\/30\/03\/2025\/\">Read More &rsaquo;<\/a><\/button><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":46790,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_seopress_robots_primary_cat":"","_seopress_titles_title":"","_seopress_titles_desc":"","_seopress_robots_index":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[2],"tags":[],"fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/s.yimg.com\/ny\/api\/res\/1.2\/aU.8DtrgCgTIWythInSb8g--\/YXBwaWQ9aGlnaGxhbmRlcjt3PTEyMDA7aD02NzU-\/https:\/\/media.zenfs.com\/en\/modern_car_collector_articles_878\/1c6523d4f85e5cffacca9a49ca0059d8","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/newssprinters.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/46789"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/newssprinters.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/newssprinters.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/newssprinters.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/newssprinters.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=46789"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/newssprinters.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/46789\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/newssprinters.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/46790"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/newssprinters.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=46789"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/newssprinters.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=46789"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/newssprinters.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=46789"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
