Watch these beauties drive away and compare the specs on these three cabrios: Mercedes SL 350, Lexus SC 430, and the Porsche 911 Cabriolet S.

Female Speaker: The re-automotive dreams come true at once. Whoever is not hooked on one specific brand can really grow weak together with their bank account with all three. The Mercedes SL 350 since its model treatment with the toddler facial expression and in this case, with the 6-cylinder sports engine. The Porsche 911 Carrera S Cabriolet nicely proportioned with broad shoulders and this throaty sound. And the Lexus SC 430 the gentle exotic car with incredible drive comfort. Upfront the Mercedes wears what his always said it apart the star. The Porsche impresses more with his broad talent and its boxer engine. The Lexus somewhat reserved in its appearance yet elegant. All the roofs open and close at the press of a button. 20 seconds is what it takes the fabric top on the 911 even while driving. The Vario roof on the Mercedes takes 25 second and it tabbed it longer the aluminum retracting roof from Lexus. The SL costs a good 88,000 Euros with his mighty start studded grille and its elegant red shape its still has a great drag coefficient. Its more than four-and-a-half meters long a stately car. The interior with room enough for two plus luggage. The driver is treated to a exquisitely crafted materials, nicely legible instrument smooth parameter steering and the fabulous sound of the light alloy V6. Behind the two seats there are only storage compartments. The trunk holds 339 liters with the top down 235. The Lexus SC 430 prices starting at around 74,000 Euros like the Mercedes its been on the market since 2001. In the mean time, it is same to model treatments but as far as its looks go it's the still same old car. Elegant and reserved. Its European designers have allow themselves to be inspired by southern France, the Mediterranean and expensive yachts. Inside it literally exudes the typical luxury of leather and wood familiar on a Lexus. In the back there are couple of indentations for seats but no room for legs. The gentle cruiser has an equally gentle V8 engine. The acceptable trunk space shrinks to just about 85 liters with the top down. Porsche 911 Carrera S a good 108,000 Euros and more. From the front, a true 911 from the side, classic, from the rear, almost brutal and broad. Top aerodynamics and there is a convertible even slater, despite its deeply slanting windshield. The biggest wheels and still surprisingly good comfort four tail pipes for the throaty sound. The good old 6-cylinder boxer engine long sense and water cooled and with all kinds of electronic goodies. The interior reminds us more and more of the old 911 times of circular instruments, ignition key to the left. The back seats are great for storing stuff. Up front there is only 130 liters of cargo space for the big sporty drive. The Mercedes follow tradition hi-tech turbo. The Porsche, the animal pure driving at the highest level. Lexus, a low price exclusive cruiser. CAR-NEWS.TV
