Regardless of which cars we love to own or prefer to drive, it’s impossible not to enjoy a drive in a convertible and thinking of owning one. Convertibles can literally open up the world to you! Convertible tops are a type of vehicle top or roof that folds, or retracts. They are usually soft, but recently, some vehicles have been manufactured with hard tops that fold down and can be concealed. Some vehicles come with electric convertible tops, while others come equipped with manual convertible tops. All of this has been done to make Convertibles more practical and desirable.

While not for everyone, convertible cars are admired by almost everyone and have been an essential part of the automotive industry. Convertibles, also known as a cabriolet, or spyder/spider, are cars that can be driven with or without a roof; which means they provide an open-air driving experience and at the same time have the ability to provide a roof when required.
