What soft-riding convertible would you recommend?

As we age (over 75) we are finding our mk3 Mazda MX-5 automatic a firm ride. Is there a softer riding convertible which is not too large or expensive? We have looked at a Lexus IS250C but the youngest is now over 10 years old.

If you want to combine a convertible roof with a more comfortable ride, we would suggest looking at cars like the Audi A3 and A4 Cabriolet - just look for a car without sport suspension - or the Mercedes-Benz C-Class Convertible.
