I have driven my car every weekend for nearly 12 years. And I abide by the strict rule of top down if the ambient temp is above 60 F.
I've not had to replace a single mechanical part of the top mechanism. Porsche did a good job in this area.
You are better off protecting the canvas by leaving it fully taught. IMO, a smooth wrinkle-free top in the up position makes this car look fantastic.
