The 987 top (and perhaps 986) is prone to developing pressure circles with the top down for long periods of time. This is particularly true when the top is put down damp (a no-no per the manual).
The 987 top design is derived from the 996 turbo cabriolet with motors strong enough to raise or lower the top when moving at up to 60 mph (even though it's limited for liability reasons to below 31). If it can do that, then it can certainly handle the rigors of conventional usage. I'd also believe that like any other motor, it benefits from being put to use rather than neglect.
