1. If you plan to track the car, it lowers the center of gravity. The sunroof is a huge heavy chunk of glass.

2. If you're tall, the sunroof takes up needed headroom.

to the OP... you could try; but I don't think we have the sunroof delete option here in the U.S.

makes sense but im sure it would be one of the easiest windows to replace with lightweight material

That's true as well.

I know if we had the option in the States, I would have chose it. I rarely use it (and when I do, only the vent mode, never fully open), and at 6'2" I bump the headliner on occasion.

And most importantly if you never used one and do not plan to use it, why waste money??? SHould be an option...

Exactly! My mcoupe got a one I never use it. My 525 wagon got 2 sunroofs! I also dont want to carry around all that extra weight especially located that high in the car. I shold be an option.

In Australia it was no problem ordering without sunroof.
My previous two cars had sunroofs and i opened them rarely and only for the novelty.
I see no need for such, not only dirt, dust and all sorts of things can find there way in but in traffic some idiot can throw items in. Why would you want to bake your head in the hot sun.
