All the time unless it is too hot outside. I traded in my Audi A5 because the sunroof only tilted and I just couldn't stand the lack of sun after a while.

Yes, especially when the sun starts to set. Cant during the day time in summer tho because here in TX you will get baked!
Im enjoying the Sunroof with this SC since my last SC was a hardtop i owned for a few years. I do miss some of the convertibles I owned in the past tho too.

useless over 50mph on the IS250. Too much noise and wind buffeting. 90% of the time I drive at 80mph.

99% of the time everything is closed. But on occasion in the cooler months, I'll crack or vent it for that cool breeze in the evening.

Except the times I wanna play with the auto open/close shade and sun roof, I never open it.

Same goes to my side window shades and rear shade, always up all the time.

I use my sunroof almost every day as long as the weather is not cold. I don't use it during hot summer days but almost every evening I have it open a small amount or the whole way or just the vent. Overall I love my sunroof.

Rarely on the cars with sunroof. Doesn't really do a thing for me. A convertible on the other hand...
