I love the sunroof actually put a sunroof vent to cut down on the noise so I can use it more.

I love a sun roof, although I don't use it frequently (a lot quieter with it closed) but I would definitely favour the colour of the car over having a sun roof (and yep that's how we spell color in Canada LOL)

I was thinking about getting the sunroof vent myself, but I was surprised when I got my SS because it has a pop up windscreen built it already.

I didn't want the sunroof but got one because the only 2LT in Sunburst Orange the dealer could find had one. I used it one time and didn't like the hot sun beating down on my bald head. It's been closed ever since.

LOL...the BEST reason I have ever heard against sunroofs. I have plenty of hair, and I too get cooked sometimes...lol

I open mine every time the sun is out. My other cars are droptop and t-topped, so the sunroof was a must for me!

Head Room

I've got the sun roof and was wondering if it takes away from the head room, I sit straight up since my back isn't what it used to be and my head is only about an inch below the ceiling (so much for what I thought HHR stood for). Is there more head room in the without version?

DAILY between April and Oct. I've had a sunroof on all of my cars. Even in the winter I'll tilt it open a crack for some fresh air.

I usually just crack the back..otherwise the sun just cooks the interior ( its great at night though!).....another thing I found was that if you restrict the wind deflector to only come up about half way , the noise level drops noticably!! And still does a good job of redirecting the air over the roof. You could thread it..maybe use a zip tie..or anything thats flexible to collapse when its closed....
