The good: The 2009 Chevrolet Corvette Convertible's big LS3 engine gives supercar acceleration while providing useful torque in everyday driving, and delivers better fuel economy compared with other cars in its class. A magnetic suspension system contributes to handling, while the Corvette's look is distinct.

The bad: The Bluetooth system lacks advanced features, such as phonebook downloading, and the Bose audio produces muddy sound.

The bottom line: In this touring configuration, the 2009 Chevrolet Corvette Convertible is an easy car to drive in almost any situation, with monstrous power on tap, but the cabin tech feels like a mishmash of components.
