I haven't seen the moonroofs on the Camry.

Our Avalon has one, however. This moonroof is inset, so you
actually gain a little headspace with it. And it has the sliding shade
so that there is no sunlight on your head unless you want to open it.

We didnt order it either, but dont object to it. We seldom use it.
