Based on occasional reports here and on other Z forums, there are folks out there who would probably do such a thing and get a kick out of it.
Other than that, it gets used and if the motor wears, I'll have it replaced or use the top manually.

Even when I had my Miata I never left the top down in public anywhere. It too had a locking mechanism for interior storage, but I just dont trust people, period. The Bimmer would definitely draw the attention of "haters" though. I've already been keyed once, I can only imagine if I had left the top down what would have happened
