Convertible CL?

What would you all think about a convertible CL/S? Was there ever a hard top comvertible? I think it was the Mercedes SL500 that had a fold down hard convertible roof. Not a ragtop... Or would this be too expenesive?

Looks sweet, but similar to a Chrysler Sebring convertible.

Nice rims too!

The Mercedes SLK is currently the only car with a retratable hard-top.

Soon... the new Lexus SC430 will have one also.

And after that... the next gen Mercedes SL500 will finally get its retracting hard-top like its little brother.

The SL500 is a $100,000 car. Just out of my price range... Maybe is I work some overtime... Nah.
I have wet dreams about SL500s... and SL600's.
