Hmm I dont know how I feel about the sunroof. Its definitely something Id have to see in person. The car looks awesome overall though. The whole shape it has in that last shot is just sick.

People are going to mistake it for a Mustang enough. The sunroof is just the bullet in the head.

F-bodies don't have sunroofs... they have t-tops, solid roofs or no top at all.

Although I've always liked t-tops I don't think they would look good on this car and a targa would be too much corvette for GMs liking. They wanted to offer a sunroof for the mainstream so I applaud the offer but will take mine in hardtop.

to that sunroof the way it sits on top of the roof. I assume they couldn't get it to slide between the roof and headliner because of the curved roof line. Overall, I think the RS package looks pretty good.

Yes, it also decreases interior space/headroom too much, that's why a lot of cars use the 'slide outside of the car' sunroof feature.
