As cabin fever sets in, drivers are itching for spring and the freedom of the open road. For many drivers, the perfect car for a joy ride is a convertible, and now during the winter months, dealerships want to give car shoppers an incentive to spring for their dream convertible.
In a recent interview for Philly.com, Kerry Pacifico of Pacifico Ford in Philadelphia encouraged drivers shopping for a new convertible to buy now.

Besides that, there is less demand for convertibles in winter time, and dealerships will be more willing to strike a deal.
If a convertible seems out of your reach, here is a rundown of some of the more affordable convertibles on the market right now.
