Rear Window Visibility in the Rain

[pctek]

Well, California is finally getting rain. Have you noticed that when it rains, the visibility out of the rear window is poor... almost looks like there is a "film" on the outside glass. I'm thinking this is due to the slant of the fastback window.

In non rainy situations the glass is fine. (yes, I have cleaned the window after I took ownership of the car).

Has anyone else noticed this?

I drove mine from Atlanta back to New York in rain most of the way. At Highway speeds I thought the visibility out the back was outstanding. I don't know if a drop of water actually hit the rear window, but I haven't driven locally in the rain.

Try a Rain-X treatment and see if it improves?

Not supposed to do steady speeds until broken in.

Thanks for your concern but don't worry I varied my speed plenty.

I've noticed in stop and go traffic the rear window will collect the rain, but once you get the car moving at a steady pace it clears off.

I use my defroster and it works well.

Yes, I too have used my defroster and it helps. I've never had a car that needed that before.

Defrost usually works for me on my various cars. I have heard that clay bar and a cleaner wax helps out a bunch. Never tried it so I don't know how true that is.

This, miracle juice for windows in the rain.

This. I always leave my defroster on while it's raining (and have in every car I've ever owned) and never have a problem.

Oh man, congrats on the GT, I see you took delivery! I am waiting on my Ingot Silver GT (base) w/PP at the moment. I am yet see to see a silver GT anywhere. How is that color working for you?
Thanks!
