Now that I'm back in San Diego you can bet I enjoy popping the top on my E90 whenever possible.
Strong summary of the reasons NOT to proceed with a sunroof delete.

Sure, the reasons you cite are valid and credible. I do love the Pano roof, driving through the Cascades and BC Coastal range in the summer.

The choice simply depends on circumstances and application...
