I know I have at least 5 twins, but I'd be surprised if you saw mine :)
I just picked mine up yesterday. But there are 5 others *just like it* kicking around in New England dealerships.

Ironic, too, since you can see Rt. 2 near Alewife in those pics with a bit of imagination
Well, not really. But if you look over the dash in the interior shot, it goes right up the bike path to the station.

I'll see if I can take one tomorrow
But it's just a sunroof. Not the best one, either. But I wouldn't buy a ride without a sunroof; I feel all cooped up in its absence.
The sunshade really bites. I'd read some complaints from owners about breaking it after owning the car for only a few weeks, but I couldn't get it to close at all, and I spent some amount of time trying all combinations of fiddling, squeezing, nudging, and ultimately slamming before I gave up. Methinks this will be a subject of some discussion at my 5K checkup...
By contrast, the noise dampening baffle is clever and quite effective. Beats the "do not open me past 3/4..." guidance on my Passat (which is for sale if anybody knows anybody .

It's just a sunroof? I thought that option meant.....
...that the whole roof was glass, meaning that it's just a GIANT sunroof. I was curious how they managed the shade on that much area....sounds like it's not done well. I love the A3 2.0T that I test drove when they first came out....what a great fun little car! Enjoy it.

It's 2 sunroofs, with roll-up shades (like the Mini)
In fact, it's basically a copy of the Mini's sunroof system
However, the whole roof is glazed so from the outside it all looks like tinted glass.<ul><li><a href="https://www.audiworld.com/news/04/121704/content.shtml">https://www.audiworld.com/news/04/121704/content.shtml</a</li></ul>
