The 2015 VW Eos flirts with the edge of luxury and mainstream, and while it doesn't have many competitors in its segment, it seems to do many things well at once.
Inside the VW portfolio, you'll also find the Beetle and Beetle convertible.
They're excellent alternatives for the Eos, though neither offer quite the same level of refinement that you'll find in the hardtop convertible.
However, you can have the Beetle in a diesel variant, which gives it an edge on the Eos in terms of fuel economy.
There's also the MINI Cooper Convertible, which handles better, but loses out in general comfort and practicality.

The 2015 Volkswagen Beetle offers plenty of powertrain choice and decent practicality in a retro-leaning package. |
The 2013 BMW 1-Series is part small luxury coupe, part sports car, and if you're okay with a tight interior and a sometimes-frustrating iDrive, you'll find happiness. |
