closed when it's cold. tilted when the weather is mild or when i need some fresh air in the car. wide open during summer to let the hot air out...black leather = hot!

I guess since all we are talking about is looks.....I would say open.

But if you like how it looks when open, then how about a roof spoiler?

Full open, all the way down to -5C. (that's about 22F for you folks south of the 49th) Tilted if it's raining. Closed only above 62 mph (100 km/h for us Canucks). I can't imagine living without a sunroof in any future car. For me, it's not the looks, it's the feeling.

Cheers,
Derek

I bought my '05 in mid-December. I live in Chicago. I've never seen mine open, or tilted. It really does that? LOL

uhh...you'd have to pretty clueless not to figure out it tilts.

besides, who cares what it looks like? I use the sunroof (shaded, unshaded, tilted or open) for my pleasure, not the pleasure of the dude in the car next to me or the broad standing on the corner.

Mostly tilted because I like to hear that crisp exhaust sound. Also I figure most are looking at me from behind.

I always figured water wouldn't come in. But on my last car, I had the moonroof, up and I hit the brakes hard and then got showered with water on the roof. Since then, I do not open it in the rain or in the mornings if there is condensation on the car.
