Looking for the perfect last minute gift for the high roller on your list? A new customized Italian-designed Rolls-Royce is available for a cool $1,600,000.

The million dollar Rolls was the brainchild of Italian fashion house Fenice Milano. The Fenice Milano 'Diva' is described as a "synonym for class, elegance and style".

It is certainly not an understated car. Gone is the class and elegance of a Rolls, replaced with flashy bling. The Fenice Milano Rolls-Royce Ghost has been spray painted with pure 24-carat gold.

The standard Ghost goes for $340,000 but the customized Diva is now on sale for $1.6 million.

A Rolls-Royce historian, described the car as "bizarre" but also "spectacular", a luxurious Italian take on a British classic.
