If mime is ever in the rain I will see if it leaks. It does not leak when I wash it.

The last C7 I owned had a slight drip on the dash on the passenger side only in car washes.
It never leaked in rain.
It ended up having an alignment issue of the glass. I pulled the door panel off and pushed up the glass on the front about an 1/8". retightened the bolt that clamps the glass and re-installed everything.
No more leaks.

Your roof doesn’t seem to be sitting correctly. I’ve had 2 C7s, and never a gap that wide
