City fans’ icon’s car — convertible (3,9)
I believe the answer is:
san francisco
'city' is the definition.
(San Francisco is an example)
'fans' icon's car convertible' is the wordplay.
'convertible' indicates an anagram.
'fans'+'icons'+'car'='fansiconscar'
'fansiconscar' with letters rearranged gives 'SAN FRANCISCO'.
(Other definitions for san francisco that I've seen before include "City in California" , "US city renowned for its cable cars" , "hilly city" , "US west coast port" , "Californian city" .)
