Ok people.. WITHOUT RESEARCHING.. what is the difference

I know.. but just want to see what everyone else thinks.. so lets hear it

 

a moonroof is an opening covered by glass so u can see the sky and moon, and when combined with a sunroof it would be a sliding sunroof. Then a sunroof is a piece of the roof that can be open to open air so u can feel the sun.


is that right? what do i win?

 

So you are saying a moonroof pops up and a sunroof slides open?

 

To clarify.....
"Sunroofs" came first - sliding METAL panels
A "Moonroof" is a sunroof, but instead of the metal panel, you have a glass panel and a sunshade under it.
Technically, you can call one of those flip-up glass roofs a "Moonroof", but it's not the same thing. It also won't get you as much in return value as a sliding sunroof or moonroof would. Kelley Blue Book simply refers to them as "flip-roofs"

 

yea i knew the difference even when i was like 10

 

sunroof opens the whole way, moon roof only tilts

 

what do you say the difference is?

 

Id say that karguy hit it right on the nose....that's what i thought it was, correct me if im wrong

 

basically the sunroof isnt glass its painted to match the car.. so it wont let the sun in.. the moonroof was invented by Ford in the 70's.. its glass

 

but on car options now-a-days doesn't it mean it only pops up when moon roof is listed as an option and when it slides all the way open its called a sunroof?
