Default Water leaks

Need help gang. I bought a S2000 2002. Have had it for a couple months and NOW with the rain here have noticed some major water in the passenger side floor. Not the condenser tube. Already checked that out. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated!

Passenger side floor is a strange location for a water leak. I get a little water leak around my window and ends up on the passenger seat.

Can you describe it a little more? Kinda hard to help.
Passenger side floor up by the feet? right in front of the seat? under the seat? Behind the seat?

Notice water even when the car just sits in rain or is it only after driving in rain.

And anything else that could help us help you.

Sit inside and have someone spray your car with a hose. In small places at first. Check where the top latches on the drivers side and the top of the windshield. Your latches may not be tight enough. The water may not be draing out the edges. Several things but start at the top right corner.

Getting water high up on the passenger side floor and also under the seat which is throwing me off for there is the ridge just under the seat that one would assume to block water coming in from the firewall. I was driving in the rain and it was forceful and didn't see anything just gushing in per se or leaking. I am wondering if the door gaskets need to be glued in place. Checked the dry side and that side isn't glued down and everything is dry. Is there a weep hole or drain tube for the water on the cowl by the windshield wipers? Are there any weep holes in the doors? Driving me up a wall and trying to be a mold issue! Awesome car. Did get a dinger at Wal-Mart in Winter Haven but I'm beginning to just cope with old blind people!!!

In my first car (a honda civic) I had someone work on the a/c and instead of putting the tube that lets all the water and condensation of the system drop on the road, it drained into my passanger side floor. Maybe something some stupid person did is causing it as well .

I already checked that out and blew it out with air. I think there's some other type of drain that might be clogged. I saw a few other mfg's having problems with their doors and weep holes and some having problems with where the water drained or didn't when it goes into the black plastic cowl on the outside of the car where the wippers are.
