Soft Top BMW
A soft-top BMW after having it's fabric hood cleaned and weather proofed.

Soft top refers to any vehicle which has a convertible roof which has a soft covering of fabric or vinyl, which folds down to make the car open topped.

While all soft tops are convertibles, not all convertibles are soft tops, as there are removable hard tops and retractable hard tops which are also convertibles. However, in the mind of the public, 'soft top' has become the generic name for convertible and cabriolet vehicles.
