Default Vne for open sunroof

Anyone hazard a guess on a velocity never exceed with a full open sunroof(not tilted)? I never saw anything in the manual and the car seems perfectly fine with it open as you approach triple digits - no noises, shuddering, vibration, etc. I’m sure there has to be a point of no return on the way to 205.

Yessir. It was easier to learn how to fly than to play golf. So that became my hobby.

Gets damn noisy around 180 kph when you do an impromptu surge
