I guess they are rare. One came up on ebay relatively recently. Well, it was last year.

No idea what it went for in the end.

I've got one! 
They aren't a BMW part but an American aftermarket part. I don't know who the manufacturer was though as I didn't find any identification on mine.
IIRC, mine cost me £350 inc. shipping. That was when it was nearly $2 to the £ though. Must be 2 years ago now.
Dips did have one at one time, don't know if he still does though. He wasn't bothered about selling, as I recall, but would have if he got a good enough offer. Something is telling me he was talking mega-money, though, as he was well aware of what I paid for mine and his is both in better condition and comes with a shade/blind which mine doesn't.
They do come up on American eBay, but not often, and it's even rarer that the seller is prepared to ship outside the USA. I would guess that $500 + shipping is a reasonable price for a mint one with the shade.

The vast majority that get advertised in this country are not pukka moonroofs, but (Webasto, usually) pop-outs.
Pic's of mine??? OK then.......


Looks quite subtle on a black car, doesn't it?
BTW, that isn't a crack in it in the interior shot, it's the reflection of my Cyclops cable on the top of the dash.
