You can just as simply crack the side windows slightly as well to vent the air. Also, tinting the windows and using a reflective dash board sunshade go a very long way. It gets into the upper 90s and low 100s in Kansas City and my 35% legal tint M235 with a sunshade does not get overly hot inside after baking in the direct sun at work for 8 hours. That's with no moonroof and the no windows cracked. As I'm walking to the car, I hold down the unlock button and the windows go down completely, venting all the built up hot air.
