With no love lost for the previous 6 Series, BMW’s new luxury sports car delivers the best of best worlds in a package that you’ll daydream about.
2012 Mercedes E350 Cabriolet Review
For those who can appreciate and afford luxury, who enjoy the thought of top-down motoring and who value a three-pointed star above all else, we present the Mercedes E350 Cabriolet.
2012 Porsche Boxster S Review – Video
AutoGuide asks the question: can a mid-engine rear-drive convertible be an all-weather daily driver?
2012 Fiat 500C Review
Cutesy looks and plenty of cachet, but is the Fiat 500 Cabriolet a catch?
2012 Aston Martin Virage Volante Review
Aston Martin’s newest droptop, the 2012 Virage Volante, splits the difference between the DB9 and DBS.
2012 Mercedes SLK350 Review [Video]
On paper it seems like a short list of improvements for an all-new car, but on the open road the SLK350 doesn’t disappoint with much improved driving dynamics while at the same time having become an even better daily driver.
2011 Chevy Camaro SS Convertible Review
AutoGuide’s Derek Kreindler explains how his love of the Camaro SS Convertible is like a social smoker who only lights up after a few drinks.
2011 Mazda MX-5 Miata Review [Video]
Bigger and heavier, yes, but when compared to the first-generation Miata the MX-5 retains all of the original’s fun and wraps it in a more livable package.
2011 Audi R8 Spyder 5.2 Review
When a car looks this good and drives this nicely, it’s hard to decide whether the Audi R8 5.2 Spyder is better to see, or be seen in.
2011 Mercedes-Benz E550 Cabriolet Review
You always expect to pay a premium for a convertible, especially a luxury one with a tri-pointed star on the front and a big V8 under the hood. But the E-Class Cabriolet is surprisingly well-priced without being remotely close to the sort of vehicle you might describe using the term “value.”
2011 Ford Mustang GT Convertible Review
The new Ford Mustang Convertible might be too good. How’s that possible? Well, its modernization means it’s no longer the raw muscle car of days gone bye. Whether that’s a good thing or a bad thing is up to you.
2011 Chrysler 200 Convertible Review
Improved inside, outside and under the hood, the Chrysler 200 Convertible is a massive step forward from the Sebring, but that doesn’t change the fact that there’s still little reason to buy one.
2012 Chevrolet Camaro Convertible Review
It may be winning in the sales race, but the Camaro Coupe can’t compete with the Mustang when it comes to true driving performance. Drop the top, however, and the best features of the Camaro are revealed.
2011 Ford Shelby GT500 Convertible Review
Having clocked 5,000 miles in the GT500 Convertible we can attest to its ability to deliver power, comfort and endless smiles. Unfortunately we’re also able to comment on the fact that it might be fun, but it’s no sports car.
2011 Infiniti G37 Convertible Review
Infiniti’s G37 brings strong competition to the hardtop-convertible segment and costs thousands less than its European rivals.
2011 Tesla Roadster 2.5 S Review
With two seats, a high sticker price and a range that is still somewhat limited, Tesla’s sports car isn’t a mainstream solution to high-emissions motoring. It does, however, gives hope that a green future doesn’t have to be devoid of truly exciting cars.
2010 Nissan 370Z Roadster: First Drive
Unlike the drop-top 350 model, the new Z looks like it was always designed to be a roadster. Plus, it gets all the performance upgrades that give it a thrilling driving experience.
2009 BMW Z4 sDrive35i
Practical, it’s not; but this roadster is one hell of a sports car.
2009 Ferrari California: First Drive
It has the looks, the sound and the power, but can Ferrari’s latest horse prance like the rest?
2009 MINI Cooper Convertible Review
The Cooper Convertible is complex machine. It’s a drop-top with a solid chassis. It’s built for fun but surprisingly functional. And has the look of a poseur’s car with driving dynamics for an enthusiast.
2009 Volkswagen Eos
Volkswagen’s hard-top Eos convertible delivers fun and quality German engineering, putting it on par with cars like the BMW 128i Convertible.
2010 Lexus IS250 C: First Drive
The Lexus IS C is ready to take on the BMW 3 Series Convertible and it’s likely to have a lot of success. The reason? It’s got luxury and style at a more attractive price.
