I have just enough self confidence to drive this thing with the top down. The Jetstream Blue Metallic paint and the massive chrome 15-spoke wheels combine to make me look like the ultimate trust-fund jack ass behind the wheel. In downtown traffic, the massive 6.2-liter LS3 V8 is unnaturally well mannered, especially with the silky-smooth [...]
I. The FIA’s decision to implement a budget-capped class to F1 is likely to meet a significant challenge in the near future. The new measure would introduce a separate class of teams whose annual budget could not exceed $60 million. Teams that chose to run under those rules would be given aerodynamic advantages and would [...]
Suddenly, this car just got a lot more Fiendish. There’s a gaggle of rumors flying ‘round the Web right now saying Porsche’s putting an eyeball on rolling out a ragtop Panamera. What’s more, the car would still boast all four doors. Now we’re talking. There’s just something completely awesome about four-door convertibles. Of course, the [...]
It’s raining in these parts (Da South) right now. The air is cool and occasionally the sun will peek through the clouds to light up the wet trees and grass. In a few hours the sky will be blue, the birds will be singing and the roads running through the mountains will be clear, dry [...]
If the thought of the hard top Audi TT-RS wasn’t enough to send your heart a flutter, how’s about a drop head version? It looks like dear Audi is planning on showing off the TT-RS Roadster at the Leipzig Motor Show alongside a few of its muscular brethren. The convertible TT-RS will still boast the [...]
I. Chevy, apparently, has decided that the Camaro convertible has a green light once again. That said, it won’t show up until the first part of 2011 as a 2012 model. That’s a full year after its scheduled release, but it isn’t dead. No such luck for the Z28. [Source: Autoblog]
I. Lamborghini clarified their position on the Estoque as reported by Mr. Bowman earlier today. Basically, they denied its cancellation because they had never technically decided to build it. So there. Also, the boys behind the bull said that if they were going to add a third model, a four door might be a logical [...]
Fiat’s gone ahead and spilled the goods on the drop-head version of its 500 ahead of its Geneva Motor Show debut. For those of you who have been tracking the deluge off spy shots swimming around the web, the car’s design is no real surprise. Still, it’s cool to see the rig without all the [...]
Fiat’s planning to bring a topless Fiat 500 to the Geneva Auto Show. The rag-top 500 was all that was missing from Fiat’s arsenal to properly assault the MINI. The company managed to work in the top mechanism without encroaching too much on the already slim interior room, allowing for a four-seat configuration. Still, we’d [...]
That’s what we’re guessing. Fisker released this teaser image for the newest version of its plug-in hybrid Karma, called the Karma Sunset. The company isn’t releasing any specs or details at this moment. In fact, Fisker hasn’t even said whether or not the new model is a convertible. Still, how could this thing not be [...]
