Default Is this normal?

When going fast does wind get into the cabin with the top up?

Sure it's not the vents?
Never experienced anything like that.

I'm sure it's coming from the top, because everytime i hold it down it stops. The dealership says it's normal for convertibles to do that, but I feel it holding the car back at high speeds.

It's definitely not normal, I've never had that problem.

Thanks for the help. I hope they can tighten the top, I wish my dealership wasn't a bunch of liars. According to them everything is normal.

Are you talking draft or wind noise? There is curently a TSB (01-037) to replace top latches that rattle and don't seal well. This may be your problem.

Man, how fast are you going

Does not sound normal to me. You should take it to another dealer if they are unwilling to fix it.

Some people who works as "Service Advisor" knows less more about your car than you do yourself.
