1073 convertible super beetle, gave me a love for vintage cars & convertibles... I still own it...

Mine is the first gen convertible with 55hp and I drove it for 100s of miles at 135kph without ever missing a beat and without going in reserve does 275km between fill ups of 15 to 17 liters. That's quite good mpg and great reliablity.

I am European, and I can understand some of what's been said. What I don't get is why people have so many issues with the smart.

I'm sorry but I'm going to disagree strongly with your words about the smart fortwo...

Evoque convertible... So sad they killed it, I was still hoping... Back to a Mini MCS Convertible then...

Taking the other end of the scale, the Range rover got 20 inches longer, 12 inches wider and 2 inches taller... And you couldn't call the Classic a compact car....

I'm going to have to strongly disagree for the smart... I can't speak for the US but in europe, I've been running a fortwo convertible in paris since 2001, its got 110 000 km and it still is the best city car I've ever owned and doesn't event try to be cool, Its just a great car.

Check oil, tire pressure, grab food for my lab, cigarettes for me and drive.....

You should've stopped to see the Fiat Panda 4x4... Prettiest girl there...

That's a US thing... In paris for a cooper S convertible with just about everything short of JCW and automatic gearbox, including lease paperwork and 7% off the car, it took less than an hour...

I don't get the name... In french, look at the ferrari is "Regarde la ferrari" so now we'll have to say "Regarde la La Ferrari"... Just sounds dumb... And if this is the ultimate ferrari as the name suggests, are they closing shop and will never make another new car?

That will be perfect for my lab... I'm kind of hoping the back folds to make a flat tray... Otherwise I'll have to have someting made to make the whole thing flat so he can lay down...

Gives me worst gas mileage simply because it reacts faster than I do when coming to an incline... And wants to catch up quickly when I don't specialy care and just maintain an average speed...

Just checked to be sure, New cayenne is BIGGER than old cayenne by 2cm in length and 1cm in width... It seems a lot smaller but thats design for you...

In france Highway speed is 130Kph, in switzerland (where is live) ist 120 and even at that speed I can't reach the french figures. Take a range rover supercharged and try to reach any of the official figures. They are wrong by 30% at least...

Whatever the car I've tried it on, cruise control get worst values than just keeping a steady speed. I think it comes from the fact its obsessed by being at the perfect speed so on any incline it'll floor it to get back up instead of being gentle.

I don't know in the us but in europe its almost impossible do reach the "official" range,be it average or per "usage" (city, highway of average)... You have to drive very slowly, not let your foot twich even a little and drive 10 kpg (6mph) below the expected speed limit. And don't dare turn on the cruise control. Its…

Its nice looking and I've tried a friends coupé but its not that great to drive. I've owned a cooper S convertible and at least it was fun to drive on back roads... This is just meant to go from point A to point B... Sad but true...

I adore this thing and for the first time since who knows how long, the base engine seems the right choice...

I knew of a cayenne first gen that burnt to the ground from being stuck in the mud under the rain. Just the friction from getting out got it on fire... Nothing left but a bare shell...
