Infiniti just released this image of the 2009 Infiniti G37 Convertible . Not pictured is the folding hard top, the four seats or the complete and utter lack of trunk space. Power will be from the same 3.7-liter, 320 HP V6 as the coupe, which should easily move the extra weight. Expect more details and photos as the November LA Auto Show draws closer. galleryPost('2009infinitig37convertible', 3, '2009 Infiniti G37 Convertible');

Ever feel like you need to have the wind in your hair while pulling 8,000 RPM powerslides in your BMW M3? Well now you can with the addition of the BMW M3 Convertible. The sleek and speedy vert has been unveiled after a long rumor mill process and the swiftly shifting hardtop is here to show the goods. While it gets 100% of all the things that make the M3 on it's own a fun little toy, the thing we noticed the most will be the something the golf playing lawyers who buy them. galleryPost('2009BMWM3Convertible', 6, '2009 BMW M3 Convertible'); Looks at that trunk space with the top down. One could barely fit a golf club in the trunk, let alone many golf clubs, so many in fact to necessitate the use of a golf bag. We dig that sporty body work and the lusty power train, but come on, if we can't get two golf bags at least , we just can't even imagine putting up with this car.

A more artsy sort might call the above series of photos "triptych in B minor." We're just calling it part of the press kit released this week for the BMW 1 Series convertible . We've uploaded the full monty for your viewing, drooling or skewering pleasure. Whatever you think of the newest small BMW droptop or its hardtop sibling , we know that by mid-2008 we'll be dodging the daughters of the well heeled, as they attempt to dab on mascara, work their Sidekicks and steer these four-wheeled tanning salons at the same time. galleryPost('bmw1convertpress', 12, 'BMW 1 Series Convertible'); Press Release: BMW 's 128i and 135i Convertibles Come to America in 2008 Woodcliff Lake, NJ - September 30, 2007...

newVideoPlayer("bmw_1_conv_1_gawker.flv", 475, 376); What could be more relaxing than a spirited jaunt on a German country lane in a convertible ? If you answered, "17 minutes in a dumpster full of clotted cream with Nigella Lawson," please focus. BMW released some b-roll of its new 128i convertible (yes, the same BMW 128i convertible we revealed to you mere moments ago -- the drop-top version of the BMW 128i we revealed back in July, and yes, the same 1-series we saw the cloth pulled back on in Frankfurt) amidst a mild wringing on some Bavarian b-road. Its breezy cinematography makes us pine for those summer afternoons at the yacht club, relating bawdy jokes with the Windsor sisters and Edmund over gin and tonics. Ah, the squash matches we'd have. Then, we'd retire to Edmund's 325i convertible for line after line of Columbian high-grade. Ah, the tomfoolery.

BMW says the droptop version of its coming entry coupe, the 1 Series, will reach the US in spring 2008. Like its hardtop brother in coupidity, the convertible will come in 128i and twin-turbo 135i (to go on sale later in the year) models. The top can be raised in 22 seconds at speeds of up to 25 miles per hour and turbulence can be reduced by way of an optional wind deflector. Yes, the little bugger has iDrive, albeit with new programmable memory keys. Press release after the jump.
