Default Water leaking into cabin behind driver's seat

Anyone have water leaking on to the floor behind the driver's seat? It isn't due to driving in rain as the car sat in the driveway. When it was outside there was a lot of water and it froze. Even the radio didn't work (they said it was the speaker system). Dried the car out but it happened again. Not as bad now. The old 300 sits in the garage while my 2008 is sitting out in the cold!

Was there ever any body damage to compromise the seals? Any sunroof leakage running across the headliner and down thi inside of the door frame?

No, in fact the roof opening mechanism was getting balky. We feared it would get stuck open so we had it disabled (fuse or wiring). The car just turned 10 years old. It has always been in the garage until a year ago when we bought the new 2008 IS. We just didn't have enough garages for all of the cars.
