1LE sunroof option?

Is the 1LE going to have an option for a sunroof?
Can't recall seeing if that will be an option For the V6 or SS. I've never had a sunroof and am not tall enough to be concerned with losing headspace.

Has track focused car, wants sunroof.

I hope the answer is simply - "no".

There will most likely not be a sunroof option on the 1LE.

You ask a valid question based on the previous generation 1LE. Unfortunately, I fear this thread may turn nasty (see post above).

Since it's built on a 1SS, I don't see why it *couldn't* have a sunroof, since they are available on the 1SS.

However, as a track focused car, a sunroof removes rigidity and adds weight, and those are two things you don't really want in a track focused car. (No it's not a "track car", but the 1LE is being made to appease the track going masses - you can track anything).

It would also change the aero that the reverse mohawk is intended to provide.

Plus add a LOT of unnecessary weight.

22lbs. The bigger issue with having 22lbs, is it's particular location, high up and above the waist, which detracts from handling (theoretically - as many would be hard pressed to feel it, but some can).

But 22lbs is 22lbs. Personally, I'm working on DROPPING 20-30lbs out of my own body because racing, I don't want it added to my car.

My uneducated guess will be that it will not be available. If you can check that box, you should 100% be able to check a box for Bose. (Yes I know it's not available on 1SS)

I just thought of something, can't I get more down force from opening my sunroof since it basically becomes a huge spoiler when it's opened. This may be helpful for higher speed road courses
