I wasn't at the dealership but apparently the car has a moonroof that is not solar. Does anyone have more information on this? From the forums I gathered that this is only available as a dealer installed option, and isn't all that much more expensive than a solar equipped car but saves you from having to wait to get a car with a moonroof.

I'm interested in what this looks like (if the roof is still black like the solar cars or not, for example)

Please post pics if you have them.

Thanks,
Jay

I didn't even know there was that option.

The standard black sunroof/solar on blizzard white looks awesome though...a great selling point for me.

personally, i'd rather have the standard roof accessories than one bolted on after, and probably most people would too.

I had the same reluctant myself. After seeing it on another '10, I was very impressed. It doesn't look like a solar roof, but it looks just like a factory installed roof for other cars. There are three preset positions, so there is less fumbling around on the roof and more focus on the road. The roof also closes automatically when the car shuts off.

It is possible to get a post-factory moonroof installed by your Toyota dealership or its partners, but I don't know if it's "approved".

Not "toyota approved".
