I think what Kaeon is trying to say is no it doesn't open

Only the front one opens.

I test drove one and played with the roof and only the front one opens. When the front one is open it does make it look like both are open. About the shades comment, that just refers to the fact that how both windows have shades you can pull over them but only the front one opens. Sorry.

Right...opening the sunshades is different from the actual roof panel opening. Only the front roof panel opens...and I would love to see the picture showing the second one open, please.

And that pretty much answers the question. Where exactly would it be going if it opened? Forward? Into the .... front roof? Back into.... open air? Or over the back window?

If it didn't slide and only tilted up a little (as seen on many sunroofs), could it not fit with the front open as well? Only going up it would not disturb the rear hatch, and seeing as the rear edge of the front glass is a couple inches above roofline when fully opened, it may work. Maybe they'll figure out a way to do it for 2006 (if they decide to keep the panorama roof).

Everyone who sees the moonroof asks or assumes that the rear one opens too. To cut people off, I've started saying, "...and there's one over the rear seat, WHICH DOESN'T OPEN."
