The extra light in the cabin is worth it alone. The ability to partially open it during a lot of the year for fresh air and fully open to enjoy the sunshine here in the south west of England is lovely.
I had to abandon the sports 2-seater convertibles we had had for several years to ferry around our 5 grandchildren. They love the view out to the sky and the clouds year round.
So the pano is the next best thing for open air motoring.
