Hmmmm seems like a common problem with these C4's. Yes mine dose leak on the drivers side and some times on the passengers side. I thought it was just the need of new weather stripping, but maybe not. :confused:

I just carry rain gear, you know, coat and pant type slickers. It don't bother me any more. Ya, it leaks, drips at the curve point at the top of the glass both sides, just started leaking about half way up on the drivers side for some reason. One day it was raining so hard it started leaking at the center of the roof section at the rear view mirror. I thought about setting cans out to catch the drips or installing a sump pump. I think I have the only car you could drown in driving it in the rain! I love the car, don't care much about this particular quirk though as I will replace all the rubber at some point. This is on the list of improvements. Its got to\will get better as the funds present themselves. The one thing about driving a Vette is you are never at a loss for finding something to do or talk about doing and there are alot of people around who know and share your experiences. :yesnod:

Mine leaks at the top left of the windshield and drops on the top of my leg in heavy rain. I have also got a wet left foot from driving over big puddles. Not fun at all. Anyone have that problem?
