Do any new cars still come with a 'normal' sunroof?

A (glass) sunroof offers something air con can't, and vice versa.
It's like saying you don't need a convertible if you've got air con. Or windows.

Current RS5 does.

Why do people always mention a/c when sunroofs are mentioned?

Sunroofs aren’t meant to replace a/c. They have no connection at all, it’s like saying a sunroof is pointless because a car has a tow bar, or xenon lights.

They do require maintenance though and if not working correctly can be noisy or leaky.

Funny when I was looking at M4s a few years ago I found an Austin gold one, ticked all the boxes and then noticed the Austin gold roof which meant it had a sunroof and it was a no from me. I like a sunroof, just didn’t fancy one on a M4.

When it snows or is frosty my L320’s roof has the outline of a sunroof, yet does not have one.

I do like sunroofs - yes they're probably pointless but none-the-less I still like them. Mrs Geezer had a panoramic jobbie on her GLC and her C-class coupe which were great (as an aside her old SLK had a 'magic-sky' roof, which was lovely!). I had a panoramic jobbie on my Clubman which was sub-optimal (ie it didn't work properly, apparently a common Mini fault) but it still let in light which brightened up the cabin.

Currently the Challenger has a 'normal' tilt and slide sunroof which does brighten up a black cabin nicely:






I'd definitely chose a car with sunroof over one sans.
