2008 Porsche 911 Turbo Cabriolet
By Stuart Fowle
The city of New York is celebrating one hundred years of taxi cabs at this year's auto show, but we hope to be drooling over a different sort of cab--the Porsche 911 Turbo cabriolet. We expected it to appear at March's Geneva show, and test mules have been spotted running through arctic climates, so it might just--we say that with our fingers crossed--be shown at the Javits Center. Like the coupe, it will be powered by a 480-hp 3.6-liter flat-six. Acceleration with the top down could leave drivers bald. Pricing should start around $130,000 which means that it will be Porsche's most expensive model. For now, at least.
