    you have heard the expression -it looks fast just sitting still...what convertible looks the fastest and generally the coolest?my previous favorites were the 360 and 355 spiders.,and the diablo roadster... but know i would have to say the murci roadster is king, the ultimate roadster beast...an argument can be made for the f50 and cgt, but they are really targa type tops....

    Murcielago Barchetta looks pretty pissed off, Ive always loved the look of the Porsche 911 Speedsters done by rinspeed, and the 333sp is always a treat.

    I think your post just about summed it up, diablo roadster, 360 spider, and murci roadster.

    F50, Diablo Roadster, & 360 first come to my mind.

    SL55 looks fast, but I don't know for fact.

    Just being convertibles, I automatically thinks it's a cruiser car, except F50. F50 already looks like F1!!

    I agree the 917-30, but also the 333SP, and lets not forget the maserati MC12....murci barchetta def. does.

    The Murci Roadster looks silly with the rear air vents open.

    My vote goes to the 360 spyder. Hands down.

    If were including cars in that league, well nothing else even comes close now does it?

    i think i have to second that... The Zonda Roadster is sick... So is a yellow Diablo Roadster... An open top F50 is nice, but it doesn't look any faster than a closed-top F50... The Murcielago Barchetta looks pretty damn good, too... i really like the yellow Testarossa Cabriolet; as someone else mentioned, it looks wider and lower to the ground with the top cut off... i'd have to go with that either that or the Zonda...

    I agree. The Pagani roadster looks very quick to me.

    I'll be a contrarian and vote for the Lotus/Caterham R500 (super 7)

    (c'mon, just a motor, some tires and bit and pieces of aluminum, gotta be fast!)

    my order of preference

    1. Zonda Roadster
    2. F50
    3. Murcielago Roadster

    360 spider doesnt look aggressive enough imo
