If the Savage Rivale Roadyacht GTS doesn’t make a car aficionado’s heart skip a beat, then I give up. Shown at the [Top Marques show in Monaco](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/prestige-imports), this is the only [four door convertible](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/artura-spider) built.

It’s based on the [C6 Corvette](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/california-corvette), and packs 670 horses under the hood for a 0-60 of 3.4 seconds and top speed of 205 mph. The Savage Rivale Roadyacht GTS is a goofy name, but owners will no doubt call this car, “sweetie” or “honey” or “retirement fun.”

The Savage Rivale Roadyacht GTS sells for a fairly reasonable $340,000.
