Other Choices

More Info

Why should I also consider these? X

The Volvo C70 is tighter and more handsomely built than the Eos, but its high-strung turbo engines aren't as relaxed.

The Saab 9-3 is also another good, practical choice—with an especially roomy trunk—and due to its soft top, its top-up driving experience includes a bit more road noise.

Other four-seat convertibles like the Pontiac G6 and Chrysler Sebring offer folding hardtops, but their fit and finish fall far below the standard set by the Eos.
