Love the glass roof ! But given that amount of glass, I wonder if there's a way to close it up like you have with a standard sunroof / moonroof. On super hot and sunny days, all that glass can get pretty uncomfortable.

Glass roof

I sat in one a Model X today after put down my reservation. The sun was pretty high up in the sky and it feels very comfortable. The view is just stunning. The big windshield of Model X is the best feature I love, more than the falcon wing doors. And I think Model 3 will have similar glass like that one.

I was also wondering if the glass roof was standard or would be an option... haven't had a chance to watch the video yet (I'm at work) - did all the vehicles on stage have it?
Check out this Periscope video of a test drive (from another thread). Even though it's dark, you can see the huge glass roof very clearly.
What if you crack your windshield sounds like an expensive replacement. Cali highways are a sure prescription for a chip...

I don't even want to think what the replacement cost would be. I would guess at least $1,000.
I recall Bjorn insulated his pano roof on the S. If the glass is standard, maybe as part of the cold weather package option, Tesla could include a Bjorn inspired insulation insert....
I really really don't like that glass roof 
I'll put down my deposit when I get to work but if I can't choose not to have glass roof I will likely cancel

I'm guessing that the glass roof will be an option. The big front window (from the X) may be standard. I recall that the 3 is supposed to have multiple configurations and options, hence the wider range of price points. I'm partial to solid roofs too.
I don't think the glass over the back seats will be optional. Looks pretty hard to "design it out". I guess if you want a solid roof, get a Model S...
I strongly suspect anyone who gets a Model 3 should get the "no deductible for glass" option on their insurance! Same for any Model X owners!

Hey, I didn't make the design decisions. I prefer solid roofs myself.
In one of the drive videos I believe the Tesla staffer said there are three roof options - metal, or fixed glass, or retractable glass (panoramic sunroof).

I have always wished the S had a non opening pano roof option. We love the extra headroom and the look, but never really open the pano roof. Solid glass would be quieter I'd think.
