Default Wind Noise from Windshield

Has anyone else ever experienced what seems to be excessive wind noise coming from the passenger side bottom corner of the windshield?
One of my passengers pointed it out to me today, so I asked a fellow Z buddy in my neighborhood if he had any trouble. We went for a ride and I didn't hear anything like it in his car...


Anyone with any experience with this or advice?

Hmm... I haven't noticed excessive wind noise from any particular single spot around the edge, but I have indeed noticed that the Z tends to have a fair amount of wind noise around the windshield in general. More than other cars I've owned.

Is this somethingI should point out to the dealer or would that just be a mistake?

The dealer will say your CAI/Volks/Debadging is making the noise.

By debadging the car you removed a lot of its cd.

If my service advisor ever told me something like this, I'd slap him.

No experience with it here. Advice - tell your dealer it isnt normal and you wou like it fixed. Does water come in it at the car wash?
