But seriously -- why don't Mustangs have sunroofs?

My S197 GT is a HUGE improvement over the crap Ford used to make.

Oh god, that looks awesome.
I want that on my car.
* How much does it cost installed?
* How much hotter does your car get in the summer? (My 1 week old stock AC is not cold enough for me when it's 100 degs outside... I get hot when it's over 65-68 degrees when I'm driving)
* Do you how much more it weighs and if it's not as strong (in crashes/rolling/etc)?
And... if someone comes out with a glassback that somehow magically retracts (I can't imagine where it'd retract to or how it would even be physically possible)... then all the previous concerns are out the window and I want it at any cost.

• It's difficult to tell how different the temperature is in the summer because I bought it back in the fall of last year. It is brighter when driving during daylight hours and a cap or hat is recommended. My air conditioning works great so I don't have any temperature problems.
• I'm sure it did add some weight but I don't know how much. My car doesn't go to the track or do any type of racing, it's a weekend driver. I'm not going to roll my car anytime soon (I hope) so it's not a concern to me.
• That would be the next step, to somehow make it retractable or have a moonroof type of cover that pulls out to block the sun when you don't want any sun coming in.
• The GlassBack makes the car very unique because not a lot of people have the guts to make the purchase and I love mine!

Unfortunately I don't think the S197 Stang has enough room for the glass to slip back into the rest of the hardtop without having to "stick out" (see the attached pic)...if it does, no thanks...I don't care for that look.
I found the pic at this site...looks like excellent quality...but I personally don't care for the look...

I also want to say that I wish Ford would offer it as an option. JMO.

There are some cars that you dont put sunroofs on....
Corvettes
Mustangs
Camaro
Firebird
Chevelle
These cars all look good with convertible tops though.

Personally I'm a fan of both sunroofs and T-tops but I don't know about either on the current gen Mustangs. I just don't think it would flow all that well personally.
But man, there sure is alot of T-top hate. I'm not a fan of the II's but doesn't anybody else like the foxes with the T's? The one on the cover of October's Modified Mustangs is absolutely gorgeous.

my 07 mustang has a sunroof as well i bought it like that though..used of course..do you by any chance know how much it was or where it could be replaced? because someone broke it and ineed to repair it /: it looks just like the one in your pics
my dad has one....it was dealer installed, but he went crazy on them becuase he wanted the car without the sunroof, but it was the last one, and they were going to chrage him for the modification.......he ended up getting it (sunroof) for free. I love it. Would definatley choose one if it were an option....only bad thing....cant really put lemans stripes on the car.

Therefore you could always apply the LeMans stripping on a late model Mustang which has a sunroof in the same way
