Ignore him, he is just trying to fit in.

As far as sun roofs go, they are nice and a cool feature. But after awhile they CAN start to leak and then your roof starts too rust and you will have problems etc etc. If yOu want a sun roof then put one on. Plenty of wrxs came stOck with sunroofs and they look good.

If you plan on keeping your car for a long time and you like rust, get one.

If you don't plan on keeping your car for a long time and you don't give a toss that the next owner(s) will have to deal with rust, get one.

Factory fitted sunroof means that Subaru have to pay up if the rust appears.

Plus they would be more likely a better quality fit I would think.

10+ years

I had an '89 Celica with a sunroof. They are water/moisture traps.
