Volkswagen Eos !
The new Eos is officially out now. We just got back from the Dodge/VW dealership up in Sarasota and we got to test drive one for a little while. Fun 6 speed, kinda reminded me of an S2000 on the interior with the red. They said it came out originally came in in Europe first but now it's her. For those of you who don't know what it is......Along with the specs.

Good luck with it VW....
I've got a feeling that with a $35K MSRP its gonna flop though.
The Solstice GXP is a much better value at 26K, with REAR wheel drive, only 10hp less, but a weight of 2900lbs as compared the Eos' 3700lbs(!!!!)
And since the Solstice is turbo'd, upgrading the HP shouldn't be too hard

The 4cylinder model of the EOS is suppose to list for 28k MSRP, the V6 model for 35k. The EOS is not competing in the same class as the Solstice/Sky. It actually seats 4, has a trunk, and has a much nicer interior. They are going after the potential Audi + BMW convertible crowd with this one.
Also, the Solstice is MUCH more bloated than the EOS. I tiny RWD 2-seater with NO trunk space which is almost 3,000lbs when miatas are sitting around 2,400-2,500lbs
