How about the depth from headliner to roof skin? I hate to always ask questions, but I'm still waiting for a car. Plus, the dealer does not think a teardown is part of a test drive.

"How can I BUY this car, if I can't see how it is put together?", "Sir, put the Air Chisel down and step away from the TT...".

Finally, an intelligent question when it comes to making a sunroof!

Default It's all personal opinion of course, but I think you lose a lot of the torsional rigidity of the TT

but cutting a large hole in the roof. The way the cutaway diagrams look in "The TT Story" I would not want to be upside down in a TT with a sunroof.

Just my opinion. I see the draw of a sunroof. It's be fun to have. I enjoy the "inside a tank turrett" feel of mine! LOL
