Frameless windows = increased wind noise, leaks, and alignment issues. I'm not crazy about them on a 2 door - I'd never own a 4 door car with them.

Got the 5GT and was somewhat skeptical about the frameless windows.
Can confirm there is no increased wind noise + leaks + misalignment at all in the year that I have had the car
