The car is noisy, however, if you think it is excessive, take it back to the dealership and make them test drive it with you. May just be the normal "loud" road noise sound.

My solution: aftermarket stereo cranked!


Congrats on getting a Z!!

Welcome to the My350Z family!!

The rear hatch leaks? How about water when you wash it? Does water get inside?

Are you sure it's wind-noise, and not some kind of more serious mechanical/rubbing problem? With my windows closed, I have road-noise, but little wind-noise.

is it more like a plastic rattling?

open the hatch, go to the passenger side, and check the panel that is behind the speakers, but in front of the strut tower... i believe they have problems with that panel... if its loose and sounds like the noise you hear, double sided tape...

I know for sure there's a distinct whistle between the small side mirror and the door frame (when the window is rolled all the way down). Never heard noise from the small back window. Maybe the seal is broken.
