Power with the Top Down

2015 BMW 6 Series Convertible Silver

When you buy a car full of awesome power, you just might consider having it be a convertible as well. For many models unless you have a Sawz-All you won’t be able to have a convertible because not all models are actually sold with a convertible option.  For the upcoming 2016 year, you will have a ton of great shopping choices when looking for a new car to drive and need to know what is being offered as a convertible, especially if that is on your list as an important feature for your new car.  With that in mind, I offer you the convertibles for 2016 with the highest horsepower.

Audi TT

The new Audi TT is a sports coupe with excellent styling and a great way to get around.  Even though the horsepower is not what you might call high, 220 horses from the four-cylinder turbocharged 2.0-liter engine is more than enough to make this little roaster take on the road and chew it up fast.  The TT handles beautifully and with an interior that is fantastic from Audi this awesome car is a fun way to start the list of powerful convertibles that can certainly make the wind whip through your hair and leave bugs in your teeth.

Audi A5

In the middle of the Audi lineup we find the A5 which has the same power plant and horsepower number as the TT.  The A5 comes in a size that works great as a daily commuter car and has enough room for four to fit comfortably.  The A5 benefits from a superbly styled interior that offers some of the best features you can find in any car lineup to give you everything you will need to make your daily drive fun and exciting.

Audi A3

The A3 carries in the same powertrain as the previous two Audis making the only difference between the three the actual platform they are built on.  The A3 is the smallest sedan style from Audi, but when it’s a convertible it is a coupe version, as are most convertibles.  With a shorter wheelbase than the A5 the A3 is a bit quicker around corners and handles beautifully.  The price between these three will be one other difference in factoring the ranking of the three Audis, but all enjoy the awesome interior appointments that have become part of what Audi offers its customers on their cars.

Nissan 370Z

In convertible form this awesome little roadster brings back that feeling of driving a Z car of old.  With a two-seater style this beautiful car is ready to take off and give you the ride of your life.  The 370Z packs a huge punch for a small car, giving you 332 horsepower from the 3.7-liter V6 engine.  This power is coupled with amazing handing and a phenomenal suspension to bring you a car that you can easily love on every road you drive.  This car is also priced to be an affordable sports car that you won’t soon want to stop driving.

Audi S5

The S5 is the sport version of the A5 and shows up with a much more powerful engine than the A5 that also has a long menu of sport features to allow you to enjoy some of the best driving ever in a convertible.  The exterior styling is simple, but refined, another one of the many virtues of the Audi lineup.  The S5 is powered by a 3.0-liter supercharged V6 engine that brings in an amazing 333 horsepower for your driving pleasure and extreme excitement in an awesome luxury sports car.

BMW Z4

When you want sport from BMW, the Z4 is the right choice.  This is a roadster style car that offers a long hood, amazing engine, fantastic handling and all the BMW luxury features you can handle.  Not only that this car is not for kids, as it only has two seats, made for you and your date to have a great drive in one of the best convertibles ever made.  The power comes in at 335 horsepower from the 3.0-liter twin turbocharged six-cylinder engine which makes for excellent driving capabilities and an exciting amount of power to handle the curves and fun of a canyon run, or be a sweet ride to the dinner location for your date.

Mercedes-Benz E-Class

As the first car that reaches up to the 402 horsepower mark, the E-Class from Mercedes-Benz is a long and low car that offers some of the most dynamic power and performance from the three pointed star.  The massive power comes from the 4.6-liter twin turbocharged V8 which rockets this top down convertible beauty across any road and on into the sunset like the closing scene in a movie.  The E-Class is one of the most enticing luxury cars made by Mercedes-Benz and certainly is worth your consideration when looking to purchase your next awesome ride.

Ford Mustang

As one of the most recognizable symbols of American muscle the Mustang is a convertible that shows off with the amazing power of its legendary 5.0-liter V8 engine.  This car shows up at 435 horsepower and brings a big smile to your face when you step inside and go for a ride.  Not only do you get the fun of driving one of the best convertible sports cars on the market, you have a car that can give you the most fun-filled and dynamic drive on the road or track.

BMW 6 Series

When it comes to the signature BMW car, the 6 Series has long been one that many have desired.  Considered to be the perfect size the 6 Series is long and luxurious with room for four and a fantastic ride with the convertible top down.  Whether you want to count bugs in your teeth, or just feel what whipping around corners is like, 445 horsepower from the 4.4-liter twin turbocharged V8 engine should do the trick and make you look forward to your next ride once you are home for the night.

Jaguar F-TYPE

A supercharged Jaguar showed up on the scenes and screamed for attention in the form of the F-TYPE.  Still begging to be noticed at every churn of the engine, the F-TYPE is an amazing convertible that shows up with a 5.0-liter V8 engine attached to the aforementioned supercharger.  This brings the F-TYPE a massive 550 horsepower as the car can easily take on just about any super car on the road and come out on top, even against one of the longest standing leaders of the sports car world in the form of the Porsche 911.

BMW M6

Adding the M distinction to the BMW 6 Series turns this already high powered luxury sports car into one of the strongest sports cars on the road today.  The M6 features a sport tuned suspension and outstanding sport features to add to the increase in power.  Using the same engine as the 6 Series, the M6 comes in with 560 horsepower to give you a car choice that is even stronger than the original and handles the road like a dream.  The M6 is ideal for you when luxury, power and sport are what you are after.

Eleven choices for convertibles that you can have an amazing amount of power give you some of the most amazing cars on the road.  Whether you need a great sport car that can take the top down and give you an exciting ride, or you are after the power and features that comes from a luxury car, this is a great place to start shopping for your next amazing ride.  With roasters and coupes to choose from there is certain to be a car on this list that you can feel is the right one for you to love driving.
