Gotta have a sunroof- No one notices the mohawk in my opinion. I rarely open mine but it makes my interior bright and airy instead if dark and dingy during daylight.

If your a fan of the sun & wind while driving, get the sunroof.
Quoted for truth!

With the absence of T Tops on the 2010, I'll be ordering one with the sunroof.

Oh, as for leaking... in 12 years of having T-tops (the '02 and a '97 before that) I never had a water issue despite constantly taking them out and putting them back in. Just keep the rubber seals conditioned and you'll be fine.

Well to answer some questions, I'm 5'8". I sat in a 2SS/RS IOM w/GFX at a dealer about a month - 6 weeks ago and it had a sunroof and there was no headroom issues.

Again, I'm gonna try to stay in a sunny climate. I'm in Florida now, but I'd like to hopefully move to texas in the next 3-6 years. However, I'm joining the Air Force... and they're gonna send me anywhere they need me to be.

In the car I have now, which has no sunroof, I ALWAYS have the windows down whenever it's not freezing or when it's not over 100 degrees outside. I rarely use the A/C if I can avoid it. I also love the idea of the extra sunlight. However, as others have said, I too love the reverse mohawk on the roof.

No sunroof. If it sld back into the roof maybe but opening over the roof looks cheap.

Sunroofs in these are not noisy. It's something I specifically checked out while test driving (I've seen some noisy ones myself).

I say no sunroof.

The reverse mohawk is too cool to delete.

Also, don't forget to consider this... I'm planning to have my custom stripes go up and over the roof. On solid color, the reverse mohawk doesn't really show up that well to me. But I think they might with the black stripes on IOM. How's the seal on the sunroof for those of you who have one on your Camaro? Is there any noise coming from it on the highway or at high speeds? Or is it completely quiet and air-tight when it's closed?

Here's a photoshopped pic of the one I sat in. It's the color scheme I had moto-camaro do for me. He added stripes, wheels, color-matched the GFX on it, and blacked out the bowtie.

I always drive w/ the windows open also, but I am definitely not going to get the sunroof for one reason... weight. It has to add atleast 30-50 lbs to the car at the highest point possible. To add insult to injury it decreases body strength.
