Note to prospective sunroof buyers

I was reading some sunroof threads and I was kind of shocked when I heard people say they are (anywhere from 5"10-6"2) complaining of headroom and some saying it's impossible to be comfortible.

I am 6"5 1/2 and can say FOR SURE that if you make the proper seat adjustments , THERE IS PLENTY OF ROOM and it's very comfortable and there's nothing like letting the roof back and letting the SHARK FIN stick out

6'5 = LOVE MY SUNROOF

And I also didn't know what a reverse mohawk was until a week ago when my brother in law showed me on his SS (we are neighbors I never noticed it). I have never noticed it and am sure 100% of non-camaro drivers don't either lol

Casper has the sunroof and im 5-10. I have no problems sitting inside of Casper. Very comfortable. I have smacked my head a few times but only because my wife is 5-6 and sometimes she moves the seat around.

The height issue aside, isn't the overhead integrity of the structure reduced by a sunroof in the same way a convertible top does, only less so? I'm thinkin' of how the sunroof would require a roll cage at a lower speed pass than a solid roofed car. What are the NHRA rules regarding sunroofs?

Of course you didn't notice the reverse mohawk, you didn't HAVE one. How you gonna notice it if you don't have it?

I'd love to have ordered mine with a sunroof, and wanted to. Till I saw the first pics with the sunroof open. Just looks cheap as hell to me when it's open.

I'm 6'2" and more of my height comes from my body than my legs. I sat in a sunroof SS and put the seat as far down as it would go and could feel my hair hitting the headliner unless I reclined the seat more than I wanted to. Wearing a hat seemed out of the question.
