I know...SS/redwood has to be one of the "darling" combos of 2007!! When I saw it out on the lot w/ the drop-top down it was like, wow...the whole combo was on view w/o even having to peer into the cabin. Driving around in that would be fantastic!!!

Not that I'd ever cheat on my LilTiger, but that combination does sound very nice.

Not that... as mentioned, the Redwood Red is not availible in the convertible. It had to be the standard Sidewalk press car combo: Malt Brown/SS combo. Beautiful, too... but it's no Redwood Red/Dark Silver .

Actually, the cabrios are looking great in the '07 colors...one does a double take since, as mentioned, they aren't R56s. Mellow Yellow and NightFire Red look very cool/unique w/ that black cloth top. I've yet to see an Oxygen Blue cabrio...I'm not holding my breath either as I've only seen three coupes.

Oops..sorry.. missed the "cabrio" part of your original post. It may be available once they change to the R56 cabrio in '09.
