I've come to realize that Porsche probably makes the crappiest mechanical tops period...

More often than not, if you ask a Porsche convertible owner if they have experienced problems with it, they HAVE.

Hell, I saw a 996 convertible today with the convertible top cover stuck halfway up/down. It's pathetic.

If you haven't experienced trouble with it, you will one day.

Word of advice - when it happens and it gets stuck half way, or just doesn't move at all...pound on the area where the latch goes when you close the top. There is a sensor there and if you kick its ass, it'll work most of the time...
