If the upcoming Rolls-Royce Dawn is a bit too formal for you but when you do want to drive a five meter long convertible you should contact Mercedes-AMG for the S63 Cabrio. It took about 4 decennia before we saw a new S-Class convertible but in two weeks we can look at it all we want on the IAA in Frankfurt.
Finally they understood it with the introduction of a cabriolet. The car is available for order in december, so it'll be delivered in the next spring. Exactly on time for the first rays of summer sun. The most interesting version is of course the AMG version. The guys at Affalterbach were allowed to add their V8 in the limo without a roof. This will provide the car with 585 hp and 900Nm torque. Of course this is all connected with the slow AMG Speedshift, that is very accurately described if you leave the 'speed' part out of consideration. Luckily 90% of the clientele won't ever notice this since they'll never go out of automatic mode because that's not necessary when parading on the boulevards. The roof can be operated until 60km/h, which is perfect when you want to close your roof in traffic. The price is not known yet but expect something around the 200.000 Euros.
