Corner portions of an upper edge of the rear-side roof 24 close to the side windows protrude toward a front of the vehicle beyond a rear frame portion of the associated side window. Pillars are positioned on the respective corner portions inside the vehicle. Weatherstrips 34 each include a lip portion 34b covering an upper end portion of the associated pillar from outside of the vehicle while the roof is closed. Sealing members 40 are respectively provided on the inside of the corner portions. An extended sealing portion 40b extends from each sealing member 40. The extended sealing portion 40b blocks a gap, formed between the associated corner portion and the associated pillar and intended for the lip portion 34b, while the front-side roof is open. The lip portion 34b of the weatherstrip 34 is sandwiched between the extended sealing portion 40b and the pillar while the roof is closed.
