I am pretty sure you own my dream E46 M3. Dakar, no sunroof? Hopefully not an SMG.?

I suspect mine is on the other end of that spectrum. Titanium, sunroof, and black interior.

Let's see now sunroof or no sunroof? I think I will go with a sunroof........ahhh no...ahh make that no sunroof...definately NO sunroof.

This is all you folks have to worry about? I mean there is global warming or even Donald Trump for Christ's sake. But to worry about ...or better put to waste time on Sun roofs is to be spoiled. Let them eat cake rich Americans.

To fit in a 911 with a sunroof I have to angle the seat back significantly back and then move the seat base considerably closer than I'd like just so I can reach the steering wheel and have my head not touch the headliner. I will not buy another Porsche with a sunroof.

Gosh - I would have kept that - although the 996TT has a ton of headroom - even with a Sunroof.

I did like my 1974 non sunroof coupe -

I had no idea you could option a 996 without a sunroof. The info I had was that only the sunroof cars were federalized, so American buyers couldn't even special order them. Glad to know there is at least one slicktop 996 out there.

Onewhippedpuppy: If you can find any photos of that car, please post them and I will also add them on slicktopia.
