    Murano Crosscabriolet

    Anyone else see this advertisement in the new Car and Driver? I am sure it's elsewhere but the first time I saw it official.

    Saw the car at the show and it did not appeal to me at all.

    @Circ - Try google? Posting from my phone and did not post a link.

    Here is one otherwise. I am not saying I like it, but I like the direction. Maybe others will follow the trend and hopefully build a better looking one. $47K seems steep.

    Kinda looks too much PT cruiser convertible to me. I just hope it takes off and more make this style and someone out there makes something better looking.

    one thing about convertables

    I never like the look when the hood comes up higher than the back end. It should be an even line.

    Maybe that's an optical illusion in one of the other pics? Looks like the back end is higher here, though still not a straight line.

    I think they take the hump off in the back it look much better.

    And what the heck is that god awful color? Mint green? Looks to be McDonalds shamrock shake inspired

    Ha ha... Shamrock Shake! To me, the hump is the only thing keeping it from looking like a bathtub by breaking up that loooong straight line. In fact, I think I may have rented an apartment that was built in the 70s that had a tub in the same color.
