Heza Posted July 3, 2003 Report Share Posted July 3, 2003 so i was driving down the freeway and a black Lumina Z34 passes in the other direction. however, it had what looked to me to be a factory installed moonroof?!?! i didn't know Lumina Z34s ever had an option for moonroofs and that was the first i had ever seen. was that a factory option or did he custom install it. it opened up and tucked inside the roof not over it.

GnatGoSplat Posted July 3, 2003 Report Share Posted July 3, 2003 Aftermarket. You can get aftermarket in power sliding inside the roof too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aaron Posted July 3, 2003 Report Share Posted July 3, 2003 not to fight or anything, but i couldve sworn it was a dealer installed option. ive seen quite a few now, up to like 6. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Â i hear that. i notice Grand Prixs all the time...all other 1st gen. w-bodies...i have a very keen eye for also. i'm still standing firm when i say, 1st gen w-bodies just have some of the cleanest looks to them.

GnatGoSplat Posted July 6, 2003 Report Share Posted July 6, 2003 BMW M5's are great and fast and all, but I think Mercedes are more reliable and better built to last. In fact, a BMW is very well engineered, but often plagued with problems. Mercedes tend to be a lot less troublesome. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aaron Posted July 6, 2003 Report Share Posted July 6, 2003 i dunno, the M5 is a sexy sexy car. and fast. but nothin is as cool as the performance Lumina!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ismellrealbad Posted July 6, 2003 Report Share Posted July 6, 2003 The M5 is my favorite car in the world, but even so, as with everything, it has its faults. shawn is right, while the M5 is an amazing car, BMW does not have the reputation for mercedes in reliability. Â and BTW the M5 is no longer the fastest 4 door, BMW has plenty of competion. Audi's new RS6 ( http://www.audiusa.com/common/myaudiManualsPdf/RS6_specifications.pdf ) twin turbo V8 can pull a faster 0-60 (but not 1/4) and the E55 AMG is mercedes' answer to the M5. This one has a supercharged V8 with similar HP Â M5: ~400 RS6:450 E55:469 Â while the M5 is still my favorite car, it is not alone. fortunatley, according to motor trend, they will not let this be. it is rumored a new '05 M5 will be fitted with an ~500HP V10. :shock: :shock: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

92turboLE Posted July 7, 2003 Report Share Posted July 7, 2003 personally, i would have to say that the Bently Arange Red Label T is my favorite by far.. although with a price tag of a little over a quarter of a million dollars... kinda out of the reach of myself.... although i will have one one day ... even if only for a few minutes b4 i go to jail for stealing one  P.S. what the fuck is this supposed to be??? -----> :fruity:  - Justin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

red93z34 Posted July 10, 2003 Report Share Posted July 10, 2003 my 93 Z34 had a moonroof insalled when I bough it, guy said it was a dealer installed option, it was electric and slid into the roof. It was nothing but a pain in the ass, 2 months ago the motor for the roof blew and it took out the control box, Yesterday I removed the whole dam unit from the car, had a piece of steel the same thickness of my current roof cut and my uncle and I welded it in, did some work with Bondo and alot of sanding and grinding and as of tonight we still aren't done. It is starting to look really good though, alot more headroom without the thing in there. I went to Macco this afternoon and got some good paint and primer from a buddy, also picked up a few cans of R-12 while I was there for $10 a bottle. Anyways stay away from sunroofs, i'll never own one again and i'll post a few pics when this project is done. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GnatGoSplat Posted July 10, 2003 Report Share Posted July 10, 2003 I love sunroofs. How much do you want for that aftermarket one? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
red93z34 Posted July 10, 2003 Report Share Posted July 10, 2003 you can have it if you want it, im just going to throw it away, i still have the motor and control box but they are both shot. If you want it shipped it would probably cost alot to mail it, its big and heavy. Its made by Hollandia, the glass and mechanical parts are all working.

GnatGoSplat Posted July 10, 2003 Report Share Posted July 10, 2003 If it looks factory and is no smaller than the factory roof, I'm interested. My zip is 65619. You willing to ship? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
red93z34 Posted July 10, 2003 Report Share Posted July 10, 2003 it definatly looks factory, i'm willing to ship. Im working a hectic schedule at work the next few days but i'll try and snap a few pics of it for you so you could at least get a feel for what it looks like. I don't know how to put pics on this board but if you give me an e-mail I can send them to you when i take them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
