I ain't really a big fan of sunroof.

I had it on my old Maxima and the MPV as well. I really use it anyway.

I haven't even tried the sunroof since I picked it up on Monday evening. I do wish the car does not come with the sunroof even with the GT package.

 

I think the arching tilt design makes the roof look more aggressive, but it's at the expense of any water on the roof draining into the cabin. A very minimal function vs. form battle. I keep the roof tilted in my max when there's a light rain falling, or in the winter when there's snow/ice on the roof, and just because it slightly tilts upwards instead of back and up, it can still drain into paths on the roof.

Personally though, my 8 would be a sport pkg at best, no sunroof.

 

The sunroof does enhance without a doubt the sporty edgy sexy genesequa of the car. My first, a 90 gtu did not have the sunroof. I always use to see 7's with it and always wanted it. It really does make the car look better........the slide back hidden versions are fine, I guess when push comes to shove the 8 really is more of a sports car more than a luxury vehicle albeit like a hybrid.

 

Does the sunroof self retract at high speeds? I had a turbo beetle that would do this at about 90 miles per hour or so.

 

Yes it does. I noticed that mine self retracted the other day when I hit 163 mph on interstate 5. Good feature

 

sarcasm.....tsk,tsk

 

that would be cool but it doesn't

 

Doesnt one (or all models) of the recent porsches have a spoiler that goes up when you reach a certain speed.........

 

Wow ...some of you guys really spend way to much time on this forum.....ive been here since early last year and only 70 posts.I guess it took till the cars to finally came out before I really got excited.........
