The tilt feature is the best thing since sliced bread come summer in Texas. After the car has been parked in the sun for a while, you can pop the moonroof when you start up the car and the car cools down much faster than without it open since it helps vent the hot air out the top. Once the temperature is reasonable again, just close it up.

I don't open my roof either way very often because the car has not completely lost the aroma of new leather yet, but I did tilt it the other night because I ripped a horrible fart and I wanted to try to blow the stink out the roof but it was too cold to slide it all the way open.

Hey 1995hoo, Thanks for sharing, not! As long as it's not raining or too cold I have my moonroof tilted. I especially like that with it tilted I can remotely open all the windows without the moonroof opening.

You get a perfect tunnel of air aimed right at you, cooling you down nicely, and there is very little noise to go with it.

If you're alone and want to get the most breeze out of your car in the back of your head. Open the rear right window for just a bit. Then tilt your moonroof. You will feel an incredible sense of fresh air constantly hit the back of your head. Sort of soothing. Do the reverse for passenger. Now if you open both rear windows, it won't work.
you're welcome

crazymjb, your no fun.
your only 15 man... smoking and drinking is a good time, youll figure that out eventually.
and no, weed smoke does not really stay for that long, maybe overnite at best. esp in a leather car.

note to self: don't ever let 1995hoo ride in my car. 
jaydef00: you and your blunt are always welcome in my car. but no blunt, no jaydef00. hehe
maybe crazymjb isn't as crazy as his name claims to be... well, im sure his perspective on smoking & drinking will change as soon as he hits 16.

That makes even less sense, they just add weight. You guys arent making any sense.
Its more ammusing to watch other people stoned off there ass, and fight them for their car keys.(didnt get to the last guy in time with his moms new volvo, I figured hed be ok, but after his parents saw the recked car....
