Yeah, I've had massive exhaust leaks before and not smelled them in the cabin (significantly anyway).
I'm with RS: check for holes in the floor. This means pulling up carpet. I would do it everywhere. Good time to check for brake line leaks. Stuff like that rusts these cars from the inside out. I'm going to assume you don't live near me (since you are driving with the top down this time of year), otherwise, these sorts of repairs would need to wait until spring. Needs to be warm enough for POR/Fibreglass resin to set, and -20 degree weather isn't warm enough!
Other than that, check the rest of the exhaust. Do you hear the leaks? Is there corrosion elsewhere? You may see the leaks better if the engine is cold (ie when you first start it up).
Finally, are you sure it is an exhaust leak and not a fuel smell? There can be leaks in the evap line etc, but that must run differently in a vert. Think about what you smell though to be sure you are solving the right problem.
