drop-top
Open-air automobile
A drop-top is a convertible car—one with a roof that can be retracted or removed entirely.
The term emphasizes the action of the roof dropping down or folding away, and appears frequently in hip-hop and casual speech to evoke images of cruising with the top down.
We took the drop-top out on the coast highway.
It functions interchangeably with convertible but carries a more informal, often flashier connotation.
