This Year's Hottest Super-Convertibles
{{#rendered}} {{/rendered}}Lamborghini Gallardo LP570-4 Spyder Performante As if its edgy design couldn't take your breath away on its own, the 201 mph top speed of this lightweight Lambo should do the trick. Thanks to the extensive use of carbon fiber reinforced plastic inside and out, it tips the scales 143 pounds lower than the "standard" Spyder and gets 10 extra Cavalli Vapore - Italian for horsepower - to boot. Its $250,000 price tag should make your wallet a bit lighter, too. <a href="http://www.foxnews.com/leisure/2010/11/09/review-lamborghini-gallardo-lp-superleggera/">Click here for video of the car the Performante is based on - the Superleggera</a> (Lamborghini)

Audi R8 GT Spyder Like its VW Group cousin, Lamborghini, Audi has put its supercar on a weight loss program and made it topless to show of its svelte new look. Its updated face looks like it could slice through cheese, let alone the air, and a 0-60 time in the mid-3 second range is proof that less is more. Just 333 will be made, and only about a quarter of those are heading to the United States later this year. For an estimated price of about $210,000, it’s a bargain compared to its relative. <a href="http://www.foxnews.com/leisure/2010/08/11/audi-r/">Click here for video of the R8 5.2</a> (Audi)

Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG Roadster When you base a convertible on a car that known as "The Gullwing" because it has doors that are hinged on its roof, it's tough to take the top off without losing some of its appeal. But when the car is powered by a firebreathing 563 hp 6.2-liter V8 that spits out an exhaust sound that could take down the walls of Jericho, the open air environment is actually a plus. Better yet, if the wind in your hair gets too cold, it has fans in the seats that blow hot air down your body, so you can drive deep into the colder months to get the most for your $183G. <a href="http://www.foxnews.com/leisure/2010/07/20/mercedes-benz-sls-amg/">Click here for video of the car the Roadster is based on - the SLS AMG</a> (Mercedes-Benz)
