Hey guys, new here - looking at ordering a 16! Not 100% on the panoramic roof - anyone that has one have an opinion? Love the way it looks from the outside, but not sure how much sun it lets in when closed. Are you able to block all light or will there always be some getting in? How about heat - now that it's getting hotter do you notice the temps higher than a solid roof?
Thanks!
Thanks!

Resurrecting this thread now that my car has made it to the dealer. Was talking to them about tinting the roof & there tint guy recommended going with lighter tint as opposed to dark. Said the dark would trap more heat in the car? My main goal is blocking the light but don't want to create any extra heat doing so. Seems to me like it would be the opposite since it should block more heat. Any one noticed any extra heat build up with a heavy tint on the pano roof?

I highly recommend tinting the pano roof or not getting it at all. On my next car I won't be getting it since it does let extra heat in (the tint fixed a lot of that) and light (I could feel the strong sun here burning on my face even with it closed but without the tint). Also it does creak too.
The positive is that it does look good.

Can the rear power shade of the pano be controlled by a rear passenger? Mercedes says: "Dual interior power shades with controls allow the driver and each rear passenger to adjust the amount of sunlight entering the cabin."
Am I reading into that wrong? Can't find anything in the owner's manual or a way to do it in the car. Please chime in if you know something.
