Default cloth top noise

Hello,
New S2K owner here. Just curious as to the cloth top noise. While crusing at 65-80ish on freeways, are you supose to get much noise from wind hitting the front portion of the cloth?

top? what top?
i see you are in san diego... my understanding is that the cars in southern california dont come with tops, as we never need them.
i do know that the car is noisy at all speeds without a top- so sometimes i even put the windows up (dont tell anyone!)
are you sure that you arent getting noise from the latches not being tight enough?
(i suggest that you try to find another owner who has a top and ride with them to compare the sound)

I get a flapping noise from the piece overlapping the edge of the back window, but the wind noise is always a factor.
