Never had a sunroof much less a car. Do you think that they will be used alot?

OUR72GTO · 07-13-2009, 02:11 AM

We have ours open a lot.

Sat in a "non " roof car tonight next to mine with. You loose about .5 of and inch.

Glad we got it!

You get a flat roof top with the sunroof, thats the only downfall.

FWIW, I have mine cracked open more times than not. I don't usually open it all the way though.

If it wasn't power I would have definitely crossed it off the list.

Have it, and use it alot... When not raining.... We get alot of that lately...ready for summer...

That was one of the biggest reasons for me too. Plus I hve a sunroof in my Magnum and 99.99% of the time I dont use it!

OUR72GTO · 07-13-2009, 03:38 AM

But when I followed you tonight I Never even noticed the Mohawk.

But the NEXT plate looked good!

This is my first sun roof and I love it. I am using it all the time, when it's not raining.

Dan3 · 07-13-2009, 07:50 AM

I'm 6'3" and in any car, a sunroof is a must for me. They just make the interior feel so much bigger when they're open. Also, nothing clears out that god-awful, end-of-the-day heat of a dark car sitting in a sunny parking lot faster than cracking the sunroof and your side windows.

RoyalKev · 07-13-2009, 07:59 AM

Im sorry for sunroof owners but the only reason I didnt get sunroof was because it didnt retract into the roof and the way it pops up makes it look bad.

Dr Jkel · 07-13-2009, 08:06 AM

Did not want one, Have one in my truck, 06 2500 hd, and it has never been opened.

2010SLVRBULIT · 07-13-2009, 08:06 AM

It definitely opens up the confined space, but too costly of an option..

O2BQIK · 07-13-2009, 08:15 AM

Never been a fan. Coming from older Camaros with T-tops, the sunroof is just no replacement at all. With T-tops you can see the open sky above you almost like a convertible and it feels like a drop-top. We've opened the sunroof in my wife's Volvo probably twice in 2.5 years. Didn't seem worth it. And I didn't want to lose the "double-bubble" roof!

bob2the2nd · 07-13-2009, 08:18 AM

the reverse mo-hawk is the most over-rated feature on this car. it dips all of a half an inch maybe?

I have the sunroof and have used it pretty much every day (it rained 1 day). plus for me with black leather seats the ventilation feature is perfect.
