But all you're looking for is a solution to the spare tire space problem. Which means you should either be able to just put the spare up there (thus resulting in the same empty trunk you had before) or something that's lighter but takes up a similar amount of space (clothes, a tent, whatever).
If you think about it, the difference between the C/F roof E92 and a sunroof one is about 40lbs+ at the top of the car. A compact spare weighs about that much, a it's not crazy even to have the spare up there. But surely you can stash lighter luggage up there than the spare itself.
