But come on... if you drive an auto, WTF you care about the extra rigidity. Not like your car's a race car... It's like a fat guy order 3 big macs with an order of diet coke.

The normal sunroof it's a whole in the sheetmetal and the glass pops up or out, might not be that bad. But in a case like the coupe, where the entire roof is GONE, and replaced with three structural horizontal beams, and no solid tied in piece across the whole roof, rigidity is lost. Gone, bye-bye, later, peace, see-ya, nope-not-no-more. The coupe might as well be a convertible.
