And yes it is gorgeous. I mean really. Italian cars are just so special in that way. Their names, looks, engines, they way their engineers and test drivers explain them. Between this new Maser, the S5 Cabrio, new 911 Turbo Cabrio, DBS Volante and the stanbys like the SL63, Gallardo LP560 Spyder, and the RR DHC I'd have all convertibles! This Maser in particular lends its line well to a convertible, low, slinky, sexy...can't wait to hear the press conference with all the broken vowels that sound right because of the accent. It is very interesting that they've gone with a softtop when we clearly saw them testing a folding hardtop. M

| ^ I agree, Marcus... the Maser coupe shell does translate admirably into cabrio format. Open top cars though... not totally my thing. [I do have a soft spot for some however.]

| It's just so beautiful. I'd still take the coupe though.

| I just thought about it, I'll wait for the inevitable S version with the subtle body enhancements and extra power....we all know its coming. M

| I like it, but an XKR Convertible is even prettier.
