Bearing the same name as the Greek goddess of sunrise, the VW Eos's calling card is a five-section roof that can transform the two-door from sexy convertible to stylish coupe in just 25 seconds. When closed, the roof offers a large, sliding sunroof for some open-air pleasure without full exposure to the elements. Based on the Passat, the Eos can accommodate four adults in comfort, making it a direct competitor to the new Volvo C70. When U.S. sales begin this summer, the Eos will offer the Passat's four- and six-cylinder engine options, with base pricing estimated at $28,000 to $33,000.
Bottom Line: Remember when converts had plastic rear windows? How times have changed.
