S class convert?
Anyone see the blurb in the new autoweek about a new S class hardtop convert? The pic is a pshop but that would be a sweet option for people like me that want a convert and a nice sedan. An S65 convert might be my new ride if it ever comes out!

I heard the same, I believe it would be very difficult to design a proper hard-top convertible for the S-Class, it would most likely weight a lot. I do not believe that this is a very positive concept, just my opinion though.

Wow, i actually saw a topless 07 S Class in the drive way to the Montage resort here in Orange County a few weeks ago, a few people were taking pictures of it against the shore, i just figured it was a customization job
There was no sign of a roof so it must have been a tuck away
The car looked like it was cut out of a single piece of ivory, i also don;t recall seeing any door handles and it looked like it had 10-15 spoke 20" alloy wheels, but it also had screens in the back of the headrests other than that it looked like a Mercedes through and a through, wish i had had my camera with me at the time . . .
*UPDATE*
After reading this post i googled the S Ocean Drive and found concept art of EXACTLY what i saw in the driveway that day, it looked just like the concept art on this page, same color and wheels and all
