Pano roof delete for a standard sunroof? First time seeing it!
Came across a 2018 E63 wagon with a sunroof instead of a pano roof. I had no idea that was even possible, or what the potential benefit (I guess weight reduction?) would be, but looks like it exists. Anyone see one of those before? Check out this video at the 5:30 mark

It’s at the 5:56 mark of the video. From the inside, it almost looks like the pano roof continues over the back seat, but the exterior shot confirmed that it’s only a sunroof.
I’ve never seen this and wasn’t aware it was an option on any E63 wagon.

I’ve never liked sunroofs; in almost 40 years of driving, I don’t think I’ve ever opened one for any reason other than a function check. If I could spec my car with a solid roof, I’d do it in a heartbeat. A pano roof is the last thing I’d ever want.

Yes true about headroom...but that is why it is so puzzling. They just changed to a sunroof not a solid roof, so still the same headroom issue in the front right? Anyway, very unique!

Tried to order my E63 without a sunroof a year ago and learned it wasn’t possible.
Would’ve liked to have a CF option like the AMG GT R but then that might be a bit too “M” like.

Resurecting an old thread . But found a sedan with performance seats & a sunroof (18" E63 ) I may take a look at . Guessing this has to be pretty rare , maybe some kind of special order . Interesting above , I would assume extra rigidity as well. Didn't know sunroof was an option, but it is comes up as code 414

I like my sunroof, use it daily unless it’s raining. Wife has pano roof and she loves hers for more sunlight. Personal preference and not sure why they wouldn’t offer no sunroof at all.

It wouldn't be my choice, if I didn't like sunroofs, to go through all of that to end up with a sunroof. Having said that, it wouldn't crack the top 10 of dumb crap I have spent money on that made perfect sense to me.
