I think just the opposite, in that you need to operate the top to keep all of the motors and solinoids and switches from freezing up from lack of use. I think the tops have been reliable but personally I would rather have the top operate like the Miata. One handed from the drivers seat.
The only thing you wreck at high speed would be your wallet (speeding ticket) these cars were made to run on the autobahn.
Jeez, Chuck mine "works one handed from the drivers' seat"!
How does YOURS work???
Just kidding!
I have heard of dry cable assemblies for the little "wings" on the sides that fold down in operation. Or don't; that's the problem. And some of the glass de-laminates from the cloth.
But not too darned often.
