Transforming an exceptional coupe into a convertible takes more than a little cosmetic surgery and a plasma cutter. Too often, topless versions suffer from Twizzler-like body strength — which compromises handling, ride and safety — and questionable styling. For example, the car looks as if the automaker just dropped a convertible top onto a coupe without any thought to incorporate it into the vehicle's overall design. The result is an awkward drop-top.
The new 2010 Infiniti G37 convertible suffers from none of these ills. In fact, Infiniti worked tirelessly to make it appear as though no modifications have been made whatsoever to the G37. The only way you'd know this is a convertible is when the top opens. The result is arguably the best hardtop drop-top since the Mercedes SL, and Infiniti didn't have to ditch any of the dynamics that make the G37 a top performer.
