Do you put top up when parking at the grocery store, etc?

Nope. People everywhere can be jealous pricks. Eventually, someone will throw something or spit in it, etc.
I'm not worried about thieves, it's the vandals.
And yes, even small towns have them.

It looks so right with the top down. Worth the risk.

Wow, I guess I must be in a better part of town as my car would be considered just another old car. I guess I would be considered the low life with the oldest car in the parking lot.

At Walmart parking lot...

Second is the local starbucks....

That is too funny. Around here a Porsche is a rare sight, except for the Cayenne. People stare at my car, people walking on the sidewalks even point at it lol. Going through a drive through and someone always says nice car!

I took my daughter to Kohls one day, she just needed to run in and out, so I stayed in the car. 3 girls are walking towards the car, starring at it, once they get to the car one girl sees the hood emblem and says ecstatically "It's a Porsche!".

Just got done taking my daughter to buy an iPod from a person off Craigslist. We role up on a school bus full of kids and we here one of them yell "Wow look at that Lambo!" lol.

depending on the length of time I am away from the car will determine if the top goes up or stays down. generally, it will go up if I am away. if left in my driveway the top may stay down for hours on end, but with the amount of trees in new Orleans, you may consider putting it up. also at night in new Orleans during the summer you may also get the bonus of the flying cockroaches confusing it for a carrier flight deck, which may break your concentration while driving.

Two little deterents to make jerks think twice before messing with your interior with the top down are old biker classics.........#1 Get an empty gun holster and strap it somewhere in plain sight like the rearview mirror. #2 Put a sticker on your windshield that says " IF YOU VALUE YOUR LIFE AS MUCH AS I VALUE THIS CAR DONT F@#K WITH IT". You would be surprised how effective these things are......
