Hmmm, I guess that blacked out section is bigger than I had expected.

I gotta say, I just don't care for the looks of it. Seems like a gimmick to me.

Hope it comes with shades. Use to have a glassback and that thing baked with no way to cover the glass during my driving sessions. Might as well upgrade to a vert

I'm not feeling it. I'd like to see it on a different color car. It may look better on vapor or black.

I kinda like it. All it needs is some upgrade wheels and a grille that doesn't scream "deluxe".

Nah. Too much wasted space with the black wrap around. Just a waste of money IMO.

Should be getting in a GT with glass roof at work any day now! Once it hits, I'll post pics of it from inside and outside! Oh, and the color is Vista Blue and its a GT. I ordered it with all the goodies.

A moon roof would be a far superior idea and it would have a sun shade! This reminds me of the 50's glass roof that the Crown Vic had. Not likin' it.

I agree - a moonroof would be a great option.

I think that the CDC Glassback (when installed properly) looks ten times better than the OEM option. Just my opinion.

I want to see how it meets the back window. The CDC is nice, but how did Ford handle it?

I think it looks cooler from the inside than the outside. Certainly it'll make cars with stripes look odd.

Saleen does it to, Ford knows what they are doing because CDC show Ford how do it right.

It's a sunroof that doesn't open. I agree: a moonroof would make more sense.
