Panoramic glass roofs becoming popular in cars

DETROIT (AP) - January 15, 2008

How about looking up? Through the window?

Panoramic glass roofs are becoming increasingly popular in new cars and crossover vehicles. They not only give a feeling of more space and head room, but they let in more light and let kids watch the rain from a puddle's-eye view.

As one expert puts it, glass roofs give "almost the benefits of the convertible without the drawbacks." Sort of a moon roof on steroids.

But expect to shell out some serious coin for glass on top -- $1,200 to $2,000.
