I used to have an '89 Turbo Convertible until it sacrificed itself in an accident to save my life. But just before its untimely demise, it had fully assumed its destiny as a "ragtop", primarily, I think, because I parked it outside, left the top down (and hence folded) about 300 days a year, and ran the thing through automatic car washes (with the top up, of course) (brushless).
The top certainly had to be replaced, but instead, after pranging the thing, I simply replaced the whole car.
(Two cars later, I now have a much-loved '97 900 SE Convertible - Gold/beige with black top).
Bottom line - Your top will probably last two years longer in my estimation if you avoid the automatic washes. Love your canvas, and it'll love you back... It's an expensive break-up otherwise.
