Though EXTREMELY rare they do exist.

Lexus publishes the headroom differences as:

Headroom - 37.2/36.7 in (945/932 mm) (front/rear) (w/moonroof)

Headroom (available) - 39.0/36.9 in (991/937 mm) (front/rear) (moonroof delete)

You're all just too tall. I'm 5'6 and can fit into any car. LOL

A forum member if I remember correctly Salill022 sold his 2012 USB on the forum moonroof delete. And last year in Bay area a 2010 USB also moonroof delete . The one in Prestman Auto in Utah sold a while back the one lobuxracer mentioned.

I am 6'2" with a 33" inseam and have to lean the seat back to get enough room to hold my head up straight while scraping the headliner with my helmet. I have less than a finger width at the proper position with no helmet at all. I sat in an RC-F with a sunroof and could not clear the headliner even without a helmet. I could just fit in an RC-F carbon edition with a helmet because it frees up enough headroom to make the car just big enough.

I seriously thought about the IS-F in Salt Lake City for a track car - sunroof delete, and salvage title would be just fine for a track car. I wonder if it is still out there?
Just rip out the front seat and sit in the back like Hightower from Police Academy.

Not an IS F, but I specifically ordered my car without sunroof. I've never been a big fan of them and the extra headspace is nice. Not to mention the weight savings.

I would really like a black non-sunroof headliner though. That's the dream.

I know you're the CL parts guru and again props to you on your 6MT IS350 But, the ISF comes with a black headliner.

I track like Hightower. LOL I just put the back of the seat up and then just duck a little. Have been doing damn fine like that. Just have to lean against the B pillar when making right turns LOL. Still tons of fun and I pass people like crazy. No issue. Just life at my size. The world has not been created or developed for people my size. Even the SRS in the car will not protect me in a crash like its supposed to. It is what is. Fortuneatly taller men get the girls, get the job, and are paid more too LOL Positives and negatives baby!!! Positives and negatives .

I did one of those "drive a super car" deals at Gillette stadium in MA last year and drove a Ferrari and Lamborghini. I'm 6'3" 215lbs and without the helmet on I couldn't fit in the f430. With the helmet on I had to have my head tilted at a 45 degree angle and it was so uncomfortable. The Lamborghini lp550 balboni was better but my helmet was still touching similar to my isf.

The cars without the sunroof also have an aluminum roof I believe. Part of the weight savings. I wanted one mainly because I never use a sunroof but it's very difficult to find.

Unfortunately the roof is steel on both.

I can see where someone might get the impression the roof is aluminum, but if you look at this diagram, it's pretty clear only the hood is aluminum. Same as the MkIV Supra.
