I don't know exactly what Mercedes-AMG was thinking when they built this special edition S63 4MATIC Cabriolet 130.

I find the aesthetic quite striking, and I would certainly relish the opportunity to drive a 1/130 MB.

Attention getter but not fan of red tops.

I agree. That's the old school purist color combo. I insisted on that TiAG over Imola Red color combo in my M3, sans the red top. I've thought about the red top, but never pulled the trigger. This may nudge me over the edge. I don't see myself paying $240k for any cars any time soon.

I think it looks great, although I would prefer a black or silver top, and matte open pore black wood. Nonetheless it is very nice.

Only confounding choice is the wheels to me. Just use regular AMG multi-spoke instead, not black matte. Silver on red is a classic MB combo and I think it looks great.

beautiful vehicle and combo. not sure why the hate or why "confounding". only thing a bit below grade are the black rims. otherwise, glad mercedes is incorporating (finally) more color options into their interiors..about time.

$246,000? Really? For that you'r better off buying the S65 coupe. Otherwise nice car. (And the new S65 Cabriolet just announced is even nicer. I wonder how much that one will go for?)
