One of the fastest convertibles to date, the SLR McLaren Roadster hits 60 mph in 3.7 seconds and can reach speeds up to 208 mph — and Mercedes says it's possible for the driver and passenger to have a conversation with the top down at up to 120 mph. This car combines Mercedes-Benz style and luxury with McLaren Formula One technology; the two companies teamed up from 2003 to 2009 to build this fire-breathing beast. The entire interior is covered in leather, and the seats are custom upholstered. The doors are part scissor door, part gull-wing (think DeLorean). Surprising features include an automatic transmission and a body that's 100 percent carbon fiber. Safety measures come by way of two rollover bars and steel-reinforced A-pillars.
