Audi A5 Cabriolet
Audi A5 CabrioletThe four-seater with the fabric top combines a sporty character with the fascination of open-top driving, refined comfort, and great everyday utility. Seven powerful engines, an agile suspension and a wide range of high-end options make the new Audi model the most attractive mid-range convertible. The top-of-the-line model of Audi's new family of convertibles is the Audi S5 Cabriolet.
Like all open-top Audi models, the new Audi A5 Cabriolet too has a classic fabric top - which endows it with a striking silhouette of dynamic elegance. When opened, the Audi A5 Cabriolet top folds down so effectively that very little trunk space is used up - leaving 320 liters (11.3 cu ft) of unused storage volume, clearly the best value in its field of competitors. The softtop compartment lowers itself automatically when the top is opened. Automatic seat belt extenders round out the comfort in the interior. Neck-level heating is optionally available for the front seats.
The Audi A5 Cabriolet is being launched with three gasoline engines and two diesel engines, with power outputs ranging from 132 kW (180 hp) to 195 kW (265 hp). Available power trains include a six-speed manual transmission, the continuously variable multitronic, and the lightning-fast, seven-speed S tronic. In addition to front-wheel drive, Audi also offers quattro permanent all-wheel drive for the higher-power engines. via desktopmachine

F430 Black Miracle Hamann
F430 Black Miracle HamannFront impressions of the F430 “Black Miracle“ through HAMANN’s front spoiler provide a distinct racing sports face and minimize front axle buoyancy. Further reminiscence of sports racing awakens at the rear end through the HAMANN diffuser and a powerful rear wing which provides more downthrust on the rear axle. HAMANN air dams for the downforce generating Venturi Tunnel boosts the effect.
Additionally included in the “Black Miracle“ design are finished aerodynamic parts in red, orange or yellow as well as coloured side mirrors and brake callipers, tinted rear lights, a coloured engine cover framing, dark tinted windows (including front window), bi-coloured leather furnishings (any choice of colour combinations), HAMANN logos within the head rests as well as the wheels finished in the colour of the aerodynamic components and with completely covered black matt rim flange.

Suzuki Cappucino

Production began in earnest at the Kosai plant in October 1991, although aspirations for the car never extended beyond the domestic market. Aware of the favourable reception the car was receiving in its homeland, Suzuki GB soon spotted the potential for the Cappuccino to act as a brand builder for the marque, and entered into discussions to bring the car to these shores.Being such a specialist car, the type approval process wasn't straightforward, yet the Cappuccino officially went on sale to an initially bemused British public in October 1993, priced at £11,995. Tougher emissions regulations eventually made the import of the Cappuccino unfeasible, but the car carried on for sale in Japan in Type2 guise until late 1997, and personally imported examples continue to hit UK docks.

Volvo C70 T5 SE


The new C70 is a very different beast to its predecessor, which was sold as both a fixed-head coupe and soft-top cabrio.



This time, the C70 has a folding steel roof, giving buyers both cars - coupe and convertible - for the price of one. With the roof down on a sunny day, pretty well. It's the punchy 220bhp unit fitted to the awesome Focus ST. The body is suspended by MacPherson struts up front, multi-link suspension at the rear, which makes for a comfy ride around town. carmagazine

Honda S2000
It was launched in 1999 but Honda reckons it’s got a few years left in it yet. This is its second face lift (the first came in 2002) and Honda have said they’re going to stick with this incarnation until 2009.


Well you’ll have to look closely to spot any difference. They’ve done some sculpting around the front air dam which helps it retain that sleek appearance. And they’ve added similar tweaks to the rear bumper. Other cosmetic updates include a couple of new colours, new wheels, new trim inside and speakers in the roll hoops. The most significant improvements have been carried out under the skin. They’ve given it a drive-by-wire throttle and the option of Vehicle Stability Assist (VSA), Honda’s version of ESP.
