The top roof is available in two colors one is black and the other is optional moonlight black that has a metallic shimmer for direct sunlight. BMW also offers a wind deflector to reduce wind noise and car’s aerodynamics. It is available with three bow panels that fold into an accordion-style Z configuration when the trunk gets open under a hardcover. Appearance-wise it is almost the same as the Coupe. However, the total length is increased by 5.2 inches.
