Can't open windows in rain

I'm sure everyone has this problem- even cracking the window slightly in rain allows water to pour in off the top front corner. Seems like a really small deflector of some sort would divert the water enough to blow off the backside of the deflector? Anyone come up with any ideas? I have the Coupe, not sure if Sedan has the same problem.

I have driven my whole life with the drivers window open about an inch or so until I got a G. I like the fresh air no matter what the weather.
I doubt a solution is possible given the nature of the coupe structure

I agree with you.. it's soo annoying.

It won't even be raining out. The car might have a little dew on the roof or windshield in the morning, and when you go to drive away with the windows open, it all falls into the car and lands on the inside casing of the door and on the door handle.

I hate it, because I try to drive with my windows open as much as possible... partially because I love the sound of the exhaust and partially because I hate car-air(too dry, and unnatural).
