Coupe wind noise

Do you guys with the new coupe notice alot of wind noise from the windows, near the mirror areas, mine sounds kinda loud after 80mph or so? I thought it might be a lame design with the window going up after that door is closed so it doesnt seal very tight

Re: Coupe wind noise

It's really bad above 130mph. Took mine into today for:

Wind Noise (replacing window seals)
Rear Window Distortion
Lo Tire Error
Steering Colum fitment issue
Rear Truck Pop doesn't always open.
Chasis wobble at anything above 120mph (Car shimmy's left/right almost like a rocking motion)

Their tech was tied up on another viper so they asked if I could bring it back on Tuesday.

Mine was rock solid at 150-160. Wind noise is bad though, trunk pop is fine. If the Z06 didnt look like a wedge of cheese I may have bought that instead.

My wobble issue may be the shitty run flats they put on it. I just dances left/right, etc

I'm just crackers about cheese

Re: Coupe wind noise

I think the mirrors fold in like mine on my GTs , try a run with them folded in and see if some of that noise is wind noise coming from the mirrors.
