Any Issues with Pano Roof?

We specifically ordered ours without the sun roof (every one the dealer had was fitted with the sun roof). We have a sunroof in our BMW and pretty much never open it and it produces some wind noise so we decided that a bit of extra headroom and less heat in the summer was a plus...and it cost less.
I can now report,first-hand, that not having all that weight up there makes a noticeable difference in handling. It's hard to explain, but if you drive both you will feel the difference. It is most noticeable when you are shifting the weight back and forth like in a slalom. It is so much quicker to change directions that it actually feels lower to the ground. It's not, of course, but as I said, it's hard to really explain how different it feels. I am so very happy I decided to nix that sunroof!

Also, you make an excellent point about it protecting the interior, specifically the dash. That didn't occur to me but it's another reason that I'm very glad I sprung for it.
On another note...if you do get or have the pano-roof, and you live somewhere that you have to take steps during the Summer months to not burst into flames, I feel the Crystaline application to be mandatory...IMO

We had it on the windshield also. Had it taken off as at night it makes all the car lights/traffic lights fuzzy. Be sure to ask the dealer about it before you have it installed!

I hadn't considered that aspect. How bad was it? Do you feel it was applied properly? I will ask the dealer about it, but may go ahead and experience it for myself because of its benefits.
