Panoramic roof OK to use?
I have heard reports of pano roofs being prone to failure. What is your opinion- it's OK to use or leave it shut?

I have never heard this and have never encountered a problem. I say make sure you get the most out of it.

yeah seems there have been a few. But it is not flying off when open, just somehow the glass breaking catastrophically while closed. Probably from stress and pressure/vacuum from the air flowing over it.
