No leaks here (does your car have much wind noise) but the local wash tunnel does a pretty lousy job on all of the tucks and rolls of the Mustang body. It did great on the smoother Lincoln MKZ, but on the Mustang many areas remain unwashed and even unwetted. Not really worth it anymore.

When i roll both my windows down to clear beads of water and i roll them up it doesnt seem to clear the water. The water just gets pushed up and it flows back down creating bigger water irregular shaped water beads. what could be causing this? Residue on outer window or loose fitting felt at the outside top part of the door?

same here, I think it's normal. I just don't roll the windows down until the car is pretty dry, and/or clean it with glass cleaner after the fact.

I will try window cleaner. Maybe it'll help the water not bead when rolling the window down and would actually squeegee the water off. The reason why it a concern for me is when I'm driving in the rain or snow and I want to clear my view out the window that happens and I couldn't see out quite clearly.

Does this help? :lol:

I'd have it looked at. I've had my convertible through touchless washes multiple times, and so far, amazingly, incredibly...no leaks. Only convertible I've ever had that didn't leak! So the coupes really shouldn't leak.
