reverse mohawk vs sunroof

With regards to this, looks are secondary. What matters to me is function and how form affects performance. If the reverse mohawk offers little performance advantage, I'd prefer the sunroof providing one doesn't diminish structural integrity or add significant weight (especially given its high location and therefore the effect it can have on the center of mass). I wish GM would explicitly specify the magnitude, if any, of performance oriented advantages to either case.

Like-wise, I would wonder about the significance of a carbon fiber roof (if one were offered). By how much of a difference would that make? Would it be discernible? And to what extent? Under what conditions?
