Hard to go windows down with the IS
Is it just me or does the shape of the is-f make it really hard to enjoy driving with your windows down after 20mph? Strong wind in your face, loud buffeting in your ears. Opening all 4 windows help but it's still one of the worst vehicles to drive with the windows down I've ever driven

Yes, I have the same sounds and I also had them in my BMW 7 series. At first I thought I had a bad set of tires but several sets, makes and brands on both vehicles later and it is still a wind tunnel on the ears with the windows down at decent speed. Will try the 3 window deal halfway. Not sure if I had tried that one yet but it is pretty much a no-go with all windows down at speed so far.

I've never had an issue cruising around the city at up to 50mph with all four windows down. On the highway, that's a different story. The only issue for me is the damn sunroof. I can only open it to the dot before the circle on the sunroof opening dial. I don't know what the hell the issue is with the design but I felt like the car was going to implode while the sunroof was fully opened. I was told by my SA that the circle is the furthest you can open it. A bizarre design flaw for sure.

I found this post kinda humorous, like people are running out of things to complain about their F's....meanwhile on other forums such as say the Bimmer forums i'm sure they have real actual complains having to do with electrical or mechanical issues lol.
I find that having the windows rolled down between half to 3/4 up isn't bad at all, personal preference too i guess..

I've never noticed this. The only time I run with the windows down is when I am at the track, and the helmet kills all the noise pretty effectively.

I drive on the highway with sometimes the front 2 windows down, or all 4 windows down and I bleeping love it. This car is actually very pleasant up to high speeds with the windows down. (I have jdm visors, not sure if they help) But my f30 3 series on the other hand. If I even open the sunroof above 50 mph I want to smash something lol.
