It's been a long time in the making, but it's now official. St. Louis Motorsports is now one of only 30 Rolls Royce dealers in the country. The Rolls Royce vehicles sell for
300 to 500 thousand dollars.

In case you are wondering if the depressed economy is keeping people from buying expensive dream cars, the answer is no. The owners of St. Louis Motorsports say they are regularly meeting a goal of selling at least 30 cars a month.

Company owners say 60 percent of the dream car buyers are locals while the rest live around the region and different areas of the U.S.
