Default GSF Wind Noise

Hey guys,

I recently test drive a GSF and noticed at highway speeds 50-70mph there is some wind noise coming from the driver side door. When we parked i noticed that the windows are only single pane not double pane like the 2013 gs f sport.

I am nit picking becuse if the radio is on low you cant really hear it anymore...

Are any of the current GSF owners experiencing this or anyone that test drove noticed it?

I haven't noticed this and I have a two hour commute to and from work everyday. I am normally riding with the radio off in the morning for peace of mind before work. I will pay extra attention and see if I can hear something and report back but if I have not heard it by now chances are I won't.

The wind noise on the GS F is similar in comparison to my 13 F Sport with the cold weather package which has the dual pane windows.

Just zone it out and enjoy the V8 soundtrack...

Nit pick: the '13 GS F Sports didn't get double panes unless you got the cold weather package. Later years, I believe, got it across the board to cut down wind noise. Wonder if they went back to single pane for the GSF to save weight.
