Severe Vibration at higher speeds

Severe Vibration at higher speeds
Just purchased a used 04 TL w/about 84k miles on it. Was on the highway with the wife last night and said to her, "let's see what this thing can do!" Anyways, didn't get going very fast at all, maybe 75 or 80, when I noticed a vibration from the moonroof area. By the time I got up to 85 or 90 the vibration was so loud I thought the deflector or something was going to fly off! It sounded like there was a helicopter hovering right over the car. Put my hand to the visor area and could feel the whole thing vibrating. I didn't dare try to go any faster and slowed it back down.
I tried searching for this, but to no avail. Anyone else experience this issue or have any idea what it might be? I checked the deflector when I got home and it seems pretty solid on there. Not sure where to go from here, but I can't live with that kind of vibration, as there are times traffic can be moving at those speeds... Any advice or help would be appreciated. Thanks!

Take the visor completely off and then see if the vibrations stop.

Do you mean take off the entire wind deflector?
Yes, the vibration was just coming from the roof area. The steering and the rest of the car felt smooth as silk. It was in the mid 30's here last night, so all windows were up, moonroof and slider were both fully closed...
