Convertible Seabrings are ok for a summer vehicle only. Good for highway cruising.

Volvo c70 or a Rolls Royce Phanton Drophead. Or maybe something in the middle.

Mustang GT Convert/Camaro convert. Still lots of fun, fast, practical yet seats 4. Not stupidly expensive either. Both are dirt cheap to own & maintain.

Budget? Only used in the summer? Need "real" rear seating? Auto or manual? Comfortable with something from the 50-90's? Something new or within a few years of age? Do they want something you can park and leave or something you need to babysit (too valuable)?

Mustang GT. Rented a 2012 convertible while I was in Ontario a little while back. It was a real riot.

Tell us more man.... what they want out of a convert and so on.

If you DO decide to go for some classic convertible, there are literally truck loads I can find for you. Probably 50-100 different ones on various hot rodding forums I'm on.

If you want something modern, yeah like what was said, I'd go with either a new Mustang GT or Camaro convert.

It all depends man, as to what their after.

So let us know as to what years, what budget, what colors, manual or auto (etc etc etc).

Just to say "Their looking for a convertible with 4 seats" leaves more questions then answers.
