Has anyone heard if we can/will get sunroof delete on 997 coupes now that the GT3 is coming out? For that matter, can we get sunroof delete on the GT3? Thanks.

 

Doesn't look like it. 997 GT3 pics look as if there is sunroof.

 

I hear Porsche must conduct separate expensive crash tests to get DOT approval for non-sunroofed models in the USA. Since most people want sunroofs anyway, there will be no sunroof delete option for US (all?) cars.

 

PCNA decided that so few people ordered Option 652-Delete Sunroof that the engineering expense to meet Federal occupant crash regulations was financially non-viable, for the small number of vehicles configured.

Result: all NA cars get a hole in the roof...

For ROW cars the hole in the roof is an Option

The hole in the roof should be an Option in the US as well IMHO.

Want to see the sky...get a Targa

 

Partly defeats the object of a gt3 having a sunroof in it(extra weight of the mechanism etc in a no frills pure drivers car)I personally hate sunroofs despite having a cabrio because they take head room away from the car interior.

 

I tried to order my car without a sunroof. Not possible according to my dealer.
