Porsche is introducing its sixth-generation 911 Turbo this week at the annual Geneva Auto Show, but the German engineers already are testing the next new model variant, the 911 Turbo Cabrio.
  The all-wheel-drive convertible will share most major features with the hardtop, including a twin-turbocharged 3.6-liter six-cylinder engine that makes 480 horsepower and can be ordered with either a six-speed manual or five-speed Tiptronic automatic gearbox.
  Porsche estimates the 911 Turbo Cabrio will be only marginally slower than the hardtop, which rockets from 0-60 in 3.7 seconds with the manual transmission.
  The 911 Turbo hardtop model goes on sale this summer in North America, priced at $122,900.
  The 911 Turbo Cabrio is expected to follow next spring, as an early '08 model, for about $10,000 more than the coupe.

When it comes to the hardest of hardcore 911s, I'm a coupe man, but the thought of the wind in my hair at 200 mph is tempting.

Until, of course, one thinks about what happens if you roll it.

Well, you'd better be able to duck in a hurry.
