Like Slowmover, I got deflectors on my car, this means I can lower the windows a good inch and a half and leave them down there any time I'm parked, without fear of rain soaking my seats. I was down in Texas for two months, and the temps would climb to the high 90s OR it would pour rain in the inch per hour range, sometimes both the same afternoon, and I could never predict which. Tinting the windows and cracking them open every time I parked made getting into the car much more pleasurable.

On the other hand, I have owned a sunshade in the past and putting that in and out always got old. I guess I'd do it if I were in Texas or Arizona in the 110+ heat of summertime, but since it's always early spring for me when I'm down there, it just doesn't quite seem worth it.

It would be cool if someone would come up with an add on, Arduino maybe, that would automatically lower all four windows that inch and a half each time I stop the car... but it really isn't THAT much effort.
