Provided is an automotive upper portion vehicle structure with a sun roof opening, which can effectively connect the upper portion of a center pillar and an end portion position of a roof reinforcement in a vehicle width direction deviate along front and rear directions, thereby realizing light weight, and great rigidity, and in particular improving the vehicle width direction rigidity as side collision resistance. A connecting reinforcement (35) interconnecting a fixing plate (33) which is a window-frame member to reinforce a sun roof opening (20) and a roof side rail (6) at a position corresponding to a center pillar is provided. The connecting reinforcement (35) is positioned forward of the roof reinforcement (21), has a specified second sectional shape, and extends in a vehicle width direction roughly horizontally. A rear edge portion of the connecting reinforcement (35) and a front edge portion of the roof reinforcement (21) are connected to each other, and an inboard edge portion of the connecting reinforcement (35) and a front edge portion of the roof reinforcement (21) are connected via the fixing plate (33).
