Turbolink from sunny Hawaii.
We recently ordered a 2016 GLA250 with quite a few packages and standalone options. The one option we did not order, however, was a panoramic roof. We currently drive a 2012 C250 and use or open our sunroof maybe twice a year. Virtually every GLA I’ve seen in Hawaii at the dealer or on the road has them. But our current C250 standard sunroof…glass only or totally open…is just too hot by day and not very useful at night for us. I was neutral, but my wife was against ordering the panoramic roof. I also found an internet discussion on MB panoramic roofs shattering without apparent cause, with associated bad dealer experiences when that happened. Frankly I am fine not having it, but wonder what those on the forum who have panoramic roofs think about them.
Very happy to have found this forum and looking forward to discussions.
Aloha
