Whistling noise from driver side window

Hi everyone,
I just purchased my 2014 IS 250 black/black fully loaded. I was wondering if anyone else hears a whistling sound from the window when driving. The window is up all the way, but sounds like air is getting through. Just wanted to see if anyone experienced that as well.

On a side note, I love my new car! I replaced it with my 2004 BMW 330ci, and no regrets at all!

Do you have any 3M or plastic film that has been installed on the side mirror?

Yes, I had the same problem on the same window. The dealer found the weatherstripping to be defective, and replaced it under warranty, which fixed it.

Appleman, no film.

So I just got a call from the service person from the dealership. He stated that the mirror is defective and is causing the whistling noise. They are replacing it.
