Wow I didn't know that history. Hat off to the flipper who bought it for $200k, it takes a lot of conviction to buy at that price for short term profit.
Not a fan of sunroofs myself but I wouldn't even notice it on that marvel of creation.

The 7.1GT’s all have sunroofs, as do virtually every Turbo on earth dating back to the 70’s. Just a necessary evil if you want (or need) the AWD Mezger

Great title for the painting something that Col. John Boyd talked about as a contributor to the F15 and F16

Yes indeed. Col Boyd was brilliant.
I wonder if he owned Porsches?

I'm so jealous of that. The sunroof on the 911 is like a peep hole.

Ah, my bad. I just took a quick look at it and saw F-14. I guess having Naval Aviation on the brain is an old habit.

I have a gt2 roof in my garage.
I’ll get around to having it installed someday. I still need to buy the headliner.
