LOL Paris Hilton will be first in line.. with a droptop SLR, it will be easier for her and Britney to show off their hoo-has, even while the car is in motion!

Not a huge fan of this car as a drop top. Maybe it will look better in person.

That thing looks great without a top. Just another choice for the Hollywood elite and rich businessmen.

bb_454 these pics are from the concept car around 7 years ago. It’s probably safe to assume the dash will look similar to the hardtop since this interior is so dated.

What a beautiful concept! That thing is almost ten years old and it still looks modern.

This’ll be sexy when it’s built.

My gawd, how many filthy-rich bastards are out there??? Seems like all the car companies are focusing on these days are uber-expensive sports cars.

Perhaps I should be a drug dealer or something.
