Maybe it's a comfort thing -the shade and AC, I don't know. But I imagine all these people driving around in convertibles with their tops up won't buy one again.
My philosophy is top down unless wet stuff is falling from the sky, and always keep a "chick sweatshirt" in the trunk for cold passengers (i.e. my wife).

My top is down as much as possible. I keep a windbreaker in the truck if it get a little cold. I have only had the Boxster for a couple of months and here in San Diego its about 9-10 months of great convertible weather. Years ago I had another rag top and loved to drive at night and cool weather top down. A jacket and the heater are the way to go. It would be nice to have heated seats as well
