Whould a Pano Roof be a deal breaker?
I found a 2017 sedan nearby that has everything I want except the Pano roof, @ 15% off msrp. Or place a new 2018 order @ 8% of whatever msrp would be, can't decide

You want the pano for looks (exterior) or cause you always plan on cracking it open?
If it's for looks mainly, just wrap your roof w gloss black & call it a day.
If it's actually cause you're always gonna use it, then yeah 18 or keep searching for a good deal on a 17.
Personally I like the looks of it, but I also like knowing it's there in case I ever want to. Although I hardly use it, and I live in So. Cal haha
Moral of the story: I could live without it

Not having the pano roof would be a deal breaker for me, I use mine a lot!
Go for a 2018, with a minimum of 10% off MSRP...it can be done! A MB dealership close by quoted me 11% off MSRP on an ordered 2018 right off the bat!

pano adds ~150 pounds (in the worst spot), reduces head clearance (I'm 6'4) and adds additional cost.
I've had sunroofs in the past and wish the cars had never come with them (many manufacturers have it as a standard/mandatory option (Audi)).

I really wanted to have a car with the pano roof. I thought the car would feel a bit claustrophobic without it. I also like the way it looks inside and out. If you get a car without the pano roof in any color other than black, the black strips on the roof really stand out in a bad way imo.

My girlfriend on the other hand is pretty happy 18s have a sunroof standard. She was begging for the pano and then saw it in person and thought it was hideous and was fine with nothing. But now she is getting a freebie.

First let me ask this:

If it's for looks mainly, just wrap your roof w gloss black & call it a day.
If it's actually cause you're always gonna use it, then yeah 18 or keep searching for a good deal on a 17.

I can do without a standard moonroof, but the pano roof is pretty badass in my opinion. And I'm not tracking my car by any means so having a slightly worse weight distribution isn't the worst thing in the world.
