Consumer Guide's Impressions of the 2011 Mercedes-Benz Ocean Drive
Mercedes-Benz seems ready to add a four-door convertible based on its big S-Class

What We Know About the 2011 Mercedes-Benz Ocean Drive
It's tough making a profit in the car business these days, and even top-of-the-market
outfits like Mercedes-Benz don't have money to waste on pipe-dream projects.
That's why observers took note when Mercedes unveiled the Ocean Drive four-door
convertible concept at the 2007 Detroit Auto Show. Though obviously based on the
company's big S-Class sedan, the Ocean Drive surely cost a mint to build, which
implies it's really a prototype for yet another addition to the ever-expanding
Mercedes lineup.
