M2 Steel Roof weight?

Anyone knows what's the weight of the steel roof vs CF roof and glass sunroof?

Carbon roof is 48lbs lighter than sunroof and 13lbs lighter than steel roof.

I eat more than 13lbs for lunch.

It looks cool - let's be real about it.

Plain steel top is standard in Canada. You can option with Carbon Roof or Sunroof.

I agree, I'd probably still spec a sunroof, but think there should be options. But they know it will push more to the cf roof here in the USA. Just like the wheel gap and has.

We did it right in Australia, you can currently option the Carbon roof, the carbon roof or the carbon roof.

If you're prepared to wait you can option the sunroof, but that puts you back in the queue a few months, as punishment I assume. Not sure if we can even get the steely one here.

Don't think we can get the steely one here. Wish the sunroof option was as easy as the CF. Will miss the extra light in the cabin.

Agree I have the sunroof on the G42 and love it. I wanted to option the sunroof on the G87 but didn't want to wait, so I've got a Carbon roof on BG.

I pretty much checked every option except the CF pack. Thinking if I should get the CF roof, but I actually prefer the same roof color with the body color.

I think I'm gonna wrap the roof black so the sunroof blends in, and then it will match the rest of the black.

I was considering wrapping the roof body color as well. I just don't trust CF in the sun over time.

Getting sunroof here and considering getting the roof painted BSM. I like the contrast but want the sunroof.
