Default open sky sunroof

Does the open sky sunroof make wind noises when closed?

I'll be driving it in Europe at triple digit speeds so every tiny noise becomes an issue

Did some research and found a lot of disadvantages of open sky: additional weight, higher center of gravity,less ridgit structure, less headroom. Will probably spend the money on other options.

Any idea on the additional weight of the sunroof? I am really used to having one, but you raise good points (weight and rigidity the biggest concerns for me)

I did see numbers on similar but a lot smaller sunroof of A3 aproximately 50 pounds extra; so this should be 70 to 80 pounds more
