It's best to store your car with the top UP, but unlatched if the car is not driven for months on end (like winter storage for example).

What stretches out when the top is left down for long periods of time is the elastic bits that retract parts of the top when it's folded down. I know this because a PO had a hard top on my car for 5 years straight and the factory top is in good shape, but all the elastic is worthless now and I have to put creases in the top where the elastic usually does the job when I lower the top.
