One of those weird things I guess...

Same here. I have one car with it. I open it once every few years just to see if it still works. I have having it otherwise, removes headroom for when I use to track the car (I had to have it open to wear a helmet or have my head tilted against the damn thing all the time).. this car is low and losing 3" or so of headroom would be completely unacceptable IMO.

who needs a sunroof when you can have a legit fixed roof sports car?

and it's got the cool aerodynamic scalloped roof. sexy and efficient. doesn't get any better.

It would likely make me not even consider buying the car if it had to have a sunroof. I'm serious about that too. If it were an option, fine, but if it had to be there I would not be buying one. I need the headroom to clear a helmet so having one would completely eliminate some of the uses I will have for the car.

Yeah, sunroofs are a waste!

If it had sunroof, I would better off with 370Z.

sunroof will be nice ~ but officially Scion said - no sunroof so... oh well.

but i bet you can install aftermarket sunroof, that adds 20lb~30lb i believe~

The aftermarket ones always seem out of place and awkward

Normally yes, but on this car it's going to be more difficult because the roof isn't a (more or less) flat surface.
