Convertible Owners

^Agree totally and well said! I traded in a 2013 GT vert to get my 2015 vert. I was so pleasantly surprised how much improved the 2015 verts are...the top is quieter and operates better, the cabin is much quieter while running with top up, the IRS seems to work flawlessly with the vert, there is less wind buffeting in a S550 vert, and I like the one handle system better. I was very happy with my 2013 vert...and now I feel that the 2015 vert has exceeded my expectations. My baby runs around mostly "topless"!

Agreed with the positive reviews. I have the top down a lot and have no shakes or rattles of any kind. Totally solid.

I often have small kids in the back and have not lost anything with the top down, which is frankly surprising. Thought the 1 year old tossed his hat overboard the other day while on the highway - looked back, saw him fiddling with his hat, accelerated quickly on to the highway, looked back...no hat. When we got home, found the hat on the floor thankfully.

Top up, windows up, it is pretty quiet as well. We haven't had any significant rain in CA since i bought it, so I can't speak to weather tightness yet.

The one exception is top up, windows down, and on the highway - the rear window vibrates like crazy at certain speeds, to the point it made me nervous something would break.

Agree with everything you posted here, only gripe is the rear window shaking at speeds with the window down, it requires the pressurized internal cabin or else it will vibrate. I have zero complaints other than that.

Mine does that too, rear windows shakes like a subwoofer

I rented a 2015 V6 soft top in Georgia back in late July. We drove around all week with the top down and AC on full - it was comfortable even with 100 days at the time. I did not experience any shakes or rattles and I was looking for them. A very usable daily driver convertible. Easy to get in and out of, and great visibility. One of the largest trunks around for a vert. I can't wait for the one I ordered to show up.

I agree that the top pulsates badly with all the windows open. Less pulsations if I keep the back side windows closed. Very quiet with all the windows closed.
My other vehicles (hardtops) pulse badly with any windows open more than a few inches.
A friend of mine said that modern vehicles are designed to be aerodynamic with the interior closed off. That's why most manufacturers state that you will get better mileage with the windows closed and the A/C on. You loose less horsepower with the windows closed and the A/C compressor running. Open the windows and there is significant air drag as air pumps into and out of the interior.
