Volkswagen EOS 2012

Twenty-five seconds. That's all it takes for the 2012 Volkswagen Eos to transform itself from a sleek, elegant two-door coupe to an open-top, four-seat convertible.

While there may be other retractable hardtop convertible models on the market, the new Eos stands apart for being the only one to offer a full-width, power-tilt-and-slide, panoramic glass sunroof integrated in to its hardtop.

Unveiled at last year's Los Angeles Auto Show, this second-generation Eos was substantially updated for 2012 with major styling changes that included a complete new front-end redesign together with a host of new features. This latest version went on sale in the U.S. in spring 2011.

With its focus on providing a fun, dynamic driving experience, the 2012 Eos comes with the award-winning, 2.0-liter 200-horsepower turbocharged in-line four-cylinder engine coupled with a DSG dual-clutch six-speed automatic.

Some pretty country you're rolling around in...looks like California to me.
