It takes me about 3 1/2 minutes without rushing to erect the top once I get it out of the trunk. I have no real difficulty getting in/out with the top up, but then again I'm not very tall and I'm reasonably flexible. Exiting, I lean in towards the console and lift one leg out then the other. After two snakebites, I instinctively avoid touching the pipes. Then I scoot to the edge of the seat and, bracing my hands on the front and rear of the door opening, I pull myself out. To get in, I sit on the seat, scoot in as far as I can, lean back and pull my legs in. Not the most dainty thing in the world, but its not too bad.
