I think it would be cool to have. I might be tempted to tinker with the cover and try to make a tinted glass version.
Everyone to it's own on this topic. The sunroof option advantage is you get some sun and more air while cruising around and not have to worry about a convertible soft top that gets torned up / motor failure and have to be replaced overtime. There's no disadvantage I can think of. The head room is the same. Just an extra perk without worrying about high $$ maintenance for the soft top and the motor. Pretty cool to have IMHO. It's also a handful only in existence so maybe, a small maybe in the future (10 or so years from now) it will add value due to it's rarity.
You can get that car for free....if you find its eccentric owner a life-partner. He was on Howard Stern a while back offering a Ferrari (presumably this one) to whomever sets him up with a bride. Google also shows he was on Millionaire matchmaker or whatever that shows called.
Some light modifications on my F430 spider : carbon paddle, carbon door sill, 16M stripe, 16M badge, black bumper plate, black alloy wheel Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login
To each their own but why represent your car as something it's not. I always got a good laugh when I would pull up to or park next to 5-series owners that put M5 badges on their cars, meanwhile my M5 is de-badged.
Your Spider looks great, I like it! In my eyes it is not a fake 16M, but a very well-kept and discreetly refined F430, cool.
Thank you redcaruser. It is exactly my opinion. If it was a fake 16M, I would have removed the bumpers at least and the wheels as well. Anyway, my config is just perfect in my eyes
I bought this 2000 360 and am interested in finding out about the side skirt modification. Never seen this on any other 360 so far. Look at the small side vent just below the lower scoop done in the red decal, just in front of the rear wheel. Can anyone tell me who is the manufacture name and if anyone else has seen this on a car? Image Unavailable, Please Login
Here's a story that I am sure has been told somewhere in F-Chat Land!!! $85K F430 for sale. You can see it was involved in a good smash with a 575? https://losangeles.craigslist.org/sfv/cto/5930688662.html Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login

Agreed Fred, but some of these mods just make you wonder.... Like this pic, why is this dude in the sales pic? Is he some celebrity that I am unfamiliar with? Or just a random older guy trying to appeal to the rest of us random older guys? Image Unavailable, Please Login
(Scof) yeah and wearing cowboy boots. Some of you guys might think more about the destination than the drive, so I can understand. But cowboy boots in a Ferrari is like a woman wearing combat boots for ballet. Especially if you are a proud manual owner. I wear my Pumas, even to church. It just feels better getting in and out, and driving. That's the real purpose isn't it? aber ... "Nicht flammfest ausgerüstet."
Also, if I have to settle for Giulia Ti for budget reasons, I will NOT try and place a fake Quadrifoglio Verde badge on it, no matter what mods I might do. I've been tempted, but it's just not right. Waiting another year is better than faking it. I wouldn't be 50 grand in the hole at that point and left wanting either.
Saw this at the Circuit of the Americas today, was getting a ton more attention than the blue 488 next to it. Also reminded me never to take mine there as people were sitting on it taking pics. Jason Image Unavailable, Please Login
