I've been looking for a 2+2 coupe, but not a convertible. Here's my input based on cars I've driven and sat in:

Audi TT - useless back seat unless you're a quadruple amputee

Mitsubishi 3000GT - better back seat, but still uncomfortable for anyone over 5' 4"

Porsche 911 - Back seat is a total joke

Infiniti sports coupe - same joke

Jaguar XK8 - still the same joke

G35/G37 - very usable back seat, new drop top is coming soon, this one may be a great option

BMW M6 - rear seat's very uncomfortable, useless for adults

Mazda RX8 - very disappointed, completely anemic engine, did not wear well used

Maserati Coupe/GranSport/GranTurismo - Back seat is a little piece of heaven, fits grown adults very nicely and very luxuriously, no drop top option with 4 seats though.

Based on my personal experience I'd say you're looking at either the upcoming G37 drop top or a BMW 3 series/M3 with drop top. The Audi A4/S4 may be an option too, but I personally don't care for them much for the money. For sportiness you'd probably be better off with the G37 or BMW over the Audis.

There are other options if you want to go to FWD, the ones I listed are all RWD or AWD and sportier.
