I feel really stupid because I had no idea a moonroof affected the headroom, but I've never thought about it, nor have I been in two models of the same car to compare the difference.
So continuing my train of ignorance, in the M2 specifically, does this translate into increased headroom in the rear, or is it a negligible difference? I have a moonroof in my M235 and my Rottweiler enjoys it when she rides in the back. This is the one option I regretted not being able to get on my MY17 M2 that's currently in production. Will there be any noticeable difference in room for her without the option? If you're wondering, putting a 120 lb Rott in these coupes *is* a fun and interesting experience. |

I specially ordered my M235 without a moonroof. I didn't want the weight, I wanted more rigid and rattle free interior (moonroof rattles are common in M235s), risk long term risk of repairs, and most importantly, I wanted the head room. I'm 6' 2" and sit at the lowest setting. In the M235 I test drove with a moonroof, I had less than an inch of headroom between my standard-white-dude hair cut and the roof.

Headroom
I have 2 3/4" between headliner and top of my helmet in my 228. I have manual seats set at lowest position, and I am 5' 11". I have heard power seats are a bit higher. I think you will have plenty of room for a helmet.

I am 5"11', I currently drive the M255i with moonroof and about to order the M2 with one too.
In my normal sitting position I have no issue with touching or getting close to the roof (seat memory bank 1). When I do autocross I have to lower my seat to almost the lowest position with the helmet but it works out fine and it's comfortable (seat memory bank 2). |
