There's a trick to this, push the button on the door that says Up/Down.
Should fix you right up.
j/k, I notice that too, but aren't all cars like that. Maybe because of the sloped roof and coupe styling.

I only get this with my sunroof on certain angles while it being a ton of water, meaning from a car wash and such. I have yet to see anything come down from the other windows, yet.

i dont understand WHERE water is getting in. i stay dry and only have that annoying trunk leak.
my friend once opened his sunroof after his car was parked while raining, and when he came to a stop, all of the water on the roof came in through the sunroof...like a waterfall! i'm glad i was in the back seat

Its the worst, i don't know about you guys, but I am a smoker. I can't even have a cig when it is raining, even a drizzle. with the window cracked water flows in all over drivers side controls and my left arm and leg.
I don't like the way the visors look so that is out of the question, it must just be the design of the car.
I use to have an 01 CL-S and it did the same exact thing.
It is the first thing that comes to mind when I am thinking about things that I hate about this car. lol

i always thought that red velvet looking carpet was just kinda rediculous. u open the compartment apearing to be an ashtray and it clearly states "NOT AN ASHTRAY" like it doesnt want you to smoke in it. sensative little buggers these cl's are.

You can get the OEM ash tray for $15 that replaces the coin holder. But the position is horrible and ashes go everywhere. Also I don't like keeping cig butts around in my car.
I do bake it out, but not wtih cigs lol
cig baking = vomit

My first Honda was a Prelude that had the radio antenna in the front pillar on the roof. I was driving into one of those Robo car washes and looked up to see the antenna was up. Choice, lose an antenna and probably scratch the car or open the sunroof and lower the antenna. The car and I both got washed.
