I'd never SAT in a convertible until 2009 when I sat in a ROadster. I've owned three of them now. YES, you will change the top eventually and it will cost $800 or so for the top (USD) and another $300-400 for labor. THe new top will last ten years or so.
A set of tires will last 25,000 miles or so and cost $800-1200 USD. Don't let the top expense scare you, the top down drive is a good compromise between the fun, sensation of flight and feeling of joy the motorcycle brings with the safety of a car.
I"m not a coupe hater, but I can't resist the roadsters.
