Maserati Spyder (2009): the spy photos

Rated 3.5 out of 5

Tim Pollard, 21 November 2008 11:26

Will Maserati's new Spyder use a folding hard-top? Our latest spy photos suggest it will – this close-up appears to show a metal coupe-convertible style roof, but we've also heard rumblings from senior executives that Maserati grand tourers need the boot space that comes with a cloth roof. In which case, this roof could be an elaborate disguise or a ...

Nissan 370Z Roadster (2009) scoop

Rated 3 out of 5

Ben Whitworth (artist's impression by Radovan Varicak), 04 November 2008 13:55

Nissan may have barely drawn breath from announcing initial details of its all-new 370Z, but it’s already working flat out on the Roadster version of its new coupe. As our exclusive artist’s impression shows, there’s no real surprise to the ragtop’s styling – despite squeezing a fully automatic fabric roof and its electro-hydraulic folding gubbins in between the boot and ...

BMW 6-series (2011): the new spy photos

Rated 4 out of 5

Georg Kacher, 30 October 2008 09:28

Has BMW become too timid? The next 6-series will follow the cautious evolution of the 7-series and our exclusive spy photos of the new 6-series Convertible prove that it's business as usual at Munich. It wasn't always going to be that way. BMW was at one point toying with seven different concepts: a four-seater coupé and cabriolet, a coupé-cabrio with ...

Bentley Continental GTC Speed: spy photos

Rated 3.5 out of 5

Tim Pollard, 23 October 2008 10:28

Bentley will soon launch a high-performance Speed version of its Continental GTC convertible. We saw this prototype lapping the Nurburgring late yesterday afternoon – and it looks suspiciously ready for showroom sales judging by our spy photos. CAR expects the GTC Speed to follow the same recipe as the other Speed versions: a 6.0-litre V12 upgraded to 600bhp, revised radiator ...

BMW Z4: folding hard-top spy photos

Rated 2.5 out of 5

Tim Pollard, 15 October 2008 21:48

Our latest round of spy photos of the new BMW Z4 finally confirm what we said back in our July 2008 scoop – that the new Z4 will gain a Meccano-style folding metal roof. Now the disguise is firmly off the next-gen two-seat roadster, it's easy to see the new CC roof instead of today's fabric roof.BMW has plainly caught ...

Rated 4 out of 5

Tim Pollard, 10 October 2008 09:48

UPDATED WITH VIDEO! Has nobody told Audi about the credit crunch? It’s working flat-out to ready its new TT RS for launch in 2009 – and we’ve scooped the high-performance roadster and coupe. The RS models will take TT performance to a whole new level, with a circa-340bhp 2.5-litre turbocharged engine nudging it up a class into proper Porsche territory. ...

Fiat 500 cabrio: the spy photos

Fiat is readying a 500 cabrio and CAR has caught the first prototypes on test around the Nurburg area of Germany. Our new spy photos capture the 500 convertible on public roads – and we can reveal today that the 500 won’t have a fully retractable roof. Instead, Fiat is planning a roll-back style canvas roof section. Look closely at ...

Audi R3 Sports Car Photos & Review

Rated 4 out of 5

Georg Kacher (artist's impression by Larson), 29 August 2008 11:30

Audi is readying this stunning new R3 sports car, a mid-engined little brother to the R8 supercar. Developed in conjunction with parent firm Volkswagen, the Audi R3 could arrive in five years' time, with four-cylinder power to take on the Mazda MX-5 but not enough grunt to tread on the toes of Porsche’s Boxster (now an inhouse family rival, don't forget). The ...

Porsche’s harder Boxster: the spy photos

Rated 3 out of 5

Tim Pollard, 20 August 2008 10:09

Is Porsche developing yet more Boxster spin-offs? Our spies have caught this Boxster on test in Germany as it leaves the grounds of a component supplier, suggesting more tweaks are in the pipeline. Admittedly, we have little info to go on with this scoop. The black Boxster – fitted with the optional hard-top – is fitted with Porsche’s ceramic brakes ...

Rated 3.5 out of 5

Ben Pulman, 13 August 2008 11:25

This is the stunning new Audi R8 Spider with a fully convertible fabric roof. Snapped by CAR Online’s spies undergoing development work at the Nurburgring, this is the first time the Audi R8 Spider has broken cover and our pictures reveal the folding roof. Contrary to previous reports the R8 Spider won’t have a lift-out targa-style panel, but a folding ...
