Why doesn't the 370Z have roof options?

I've never had a car with a sunroof, to me this is a non-issue

I have had many cars with a sunroof, and my DD has one (Altima). For me, the Z is just fine without it. However, that targa does look sweet.

I like the idea of the sunroof and even the T top option, love the fact that I can have mine of and my passenger doesn't have to. Miss it in my 96 300ZX and when I use to roll my moms 83 280ZX Turbo, if either were an option on the 370 I would have gotten it.

I personally don't like having sunroofs in a sportscar. Decreases rigidity more than you'd think. I had an aftermarket one installed in my 240sx by PO and one day while driving it dropped out and smacked me on the head. Welded a plate in there afterwards. If you want a sunroof get a miata.

PS. Miatas are awesome and I want one.

I had a stock moonroof in my '94 FD. It made driving that car, that much more fun. I drive around with my Z windows open cuz i don't have moonroof and it sucks. The FD Rx7 is proof that the perfect sports car can be even more perfect with a sunroof.
