Top up 98% of the time... Basically the vert. part of the car makes no diff. to me b/c i love the car for the drivetrain and thats the main reason I bought the car personally... If/when I can afford a HT, I'll have one on her in a heartbeat...
Buuuut, I do love having the option to drop the top when I want too...

the only time i have the top up is when i am feeling paranoid that a raven is going to take a fat crap over my car and get my seats real messy. In reality though I only put my top up when I am having problems with allergies.

Top is up 95% of the time.. I never liked drop tops... I got the S for every reason BUT the fact that its a convertible. Car should of come as a coupe..
I like the coupe look a LOT more, once I can afford a hard top, I would get one in a second.

I know a few peeps who buy the S2000 because it's an S2000, not because it's a convertible, so their top is always up and some looking to buy hardtops. I strongly disagree with them as being a convertible is a very big part of what an S2000 is. When I was shopping for a car, I looked for convertibles first, and then towards the S2000.
Top down when weather is 60+ or 50+ with sun. I'm A okay with the attention the car might get by the way.

I have a couple reasons. When I want to get rid of the annoying bloodshot eyes (that last days) that too much top down driving has caused. But even then I end up putting the top down anyway because it's that good. 
During the winter here, once the sun goes down, you're in for some pretty cold temperatures. I've kept my house thermometer outside a few times for about half an hour. Around 8-11PM the temps are already below 32
