Default Who doesnt use their sunroof ?

I have had my car for about 5 months now and have opened my sunroof maybe 3 times. I realize that some people love having a sunroof and thats cool. I was just wondering if anyone else doesn't use theirs. Now if only someone would release a carbon fiber roof for a decent price.

that's an interesting question that i would be cool to find out the answer to. The sunroof was one of the biggest factors in me picking a car. i had to have it. I use it daily, but i'm curious to see who never uses it also....

I am waiting for a fixed one piece CF roof

I now use the vent mode but that is it, never liked convertibles or sunroofs.

About 7 months since i've had mine, and i use the sunroof frequently (not at highway speeds) ... though it has been very hot lately, so not as frequent.

With exception of a few weirdos , I think you'll find that the people that use the sunroof the most are in nicer overall climates. I'd love to use mine, but I live in Texas and right now it consistantly over 100 degrees, and with the humidity, it feels 10 degrees hotter. Only time the sunroof opens now is late at night or when trying to get the hot air out of the car after it's been sitting in the sun.

GOD if you live in california, the sun roof should be the daily driver. I use this thing everyday. Plus the fact that the sunroof looks f-ing amazing when its open, i get compliments all the time. The only other sunroof as unique as the tC's is the G6's louvered sunroof, but its american made, so it wont last as long.

I use it, but didn't buy the car for it, so I could replace it without caring to much...
