I had an S2000 years ago. That was my first, and last, soft-top convertible. Some a-hole flipped his lit cigarette butt out his window, and it landed on my top, got wedged, and melted a hole through the top. Not the car's fault, obviously, but it did serve to highlight one of the added risks of owning a soft-top convertible.

A Targa top is the best option ... I think it would of been a better way to go for Nissan than the soft top.
I also had a S2000 for 6 years and was always concerned about the top getting torn, even though it never happened I always feared leaving it parked alone and damage happening from some Idiot or the Sun drying out the top.
But loved it while driving.
I like the C6 option for the Targa or the 370Z coupe as my next summer car.
