Aftermarket sunroof is what is pushing Migs off his VIII now. That's the source of his rattle nightmare.

Let's just put a solid panel in your VIII and call it good. Save a tone of money and still have the fun factor

If I was going to go through the trouble of replacing my roof (and risk more abnormalties it would be to put a factory sunroof in).

Just for those who aren't following. No sunroof = no car.

I know the guy down here has 3 or 4 of em still. Same ones he's had since I bought mine. couple GSR's and an MR. Problem is they won't let anyone test drive em till the paperwork is signed...

I love my MR. Having ability to shift or not(I use paddles and shifter well over 95% of the time because I like actually driving the car). Since I'm currently 100% street use, no issues. I cruise home a few times/week getting up to 110mph, which is plenty fast on the streets.

Having said all that, I am getting mods installed and a tune next week. I just love driving fast and sooner I can get going fast, the better

No roof = no issues right?

Hey BAM did it to his Lambo right on the side of the road.

I have not looked around here in a couple of months but when I was looking, the MR was alot easier to find than a gsr and they were offering some insane pricing on them since the MR's were harder to move.
