Hardtop convertibles are becoming easier to build, and the 2008 Volvo C70 is just one of a raft of similar sun machines. The BMW 3 Series and Volkswagen Eos both offer similar top systems; the Eos has been picked as a class leader by Consumer Reports, and BMW's convertible offers thrilling performance with a twin-turbo inline-six. The Audi A4 Cabriolet has a ragtop, an available V-6 engine, and conservative styling. The Saab 9-3 Convertible is a ragtop with a great drivetrain and good safety scores.
