Toleration, but not into it. Not really objecting.

Since I'm transitioning from my Boxster to a 993 sunroof coupe, my S.O. is quite sad about losing access to a convertible. She doesn't drive stick so she wouldn't be driving either P-Car.
For the record, she's right. A sunroof does not equal a soft-top.

My wife enjoys my Box until the seatbelt tensioner engages & starts compressing body parts.

My wife liked it, but wasn't really into the top being down (hair). Now that it's pretty much a race car, there's no riding in it and it's just kinda tolerated. She loves the 996, though, which was the plan

Loves It
My wife has never been crazy about riding on the Harley, so I was quite surprised when she fell in love with the Boxster. We take several two or three day trips every years. The benefit of being empty-nesters.

20th wedding anniversary getaway
On our 20th wedding anniversary getaway last year driving from Durango, over Coal Bank pass, over Molass Pass, through Silverton, over Red Mountain Pass, through Ouray, to Crested Butte for the night and then down through Lake City and Creede and over Wolf Creek Pass, when we first pulled out on the highway from our house the first words out of my wife's mouth were, "Okay, what is the driving schedule?"  Love at first sight!  We had the 986 for two months up to that point.
