2023 wind buffeting

[MrNobody]

Ok... So I before I even picked up my supra I picked up the cheap wind buffeting fix...
Here's the thing. I can cruise from 10 to 80 and never have the issue that everyone has been concerned about.... did they fix this issue? Or am I alone here?

You rolled down the windows, right? Serious question.

Yes. Lol all the way. One or both. Unless I'm losing my hearing from all the loud hobbies I have. Lol

I've only driven a 2023 but i doubt they changed anything. It definitely had wind buffeting but i feel like the issue was really over blown. This is the most expensive car ive ever owned so i understand that at this price point it should not be an issue, but it was no worse than any of the trucks or vans ive driven up untill now.

Hmm - would be interested in seeing if this is the case, but I doubt it. Maybe the wind outside was at the right angle and speed to cancel out the buffeting. I’d love to be wrong and see Toyota fix this.

My SHO was unbearable. This thing is a dream compared.

2023 here... I still have the buffeting issue. Easy fix though.

That's odd. Do you happen to have the carbon fiber mirror caps by chance?

Yes. I installed the OEM CF Caps when I took delivery of the car.

These are the best ones for the money imo. Perfect fit, look oem, matches the other gloss black trim and work perfectly. Under $80.

Guys- buy this, cut it to size and stick it on - matches perfect and you never will remember its there. It fixes the issue and I have it on my car.

I really only heard the wind around 50mph on my A91-CF. My A90 was brutal at many speeds like everyone has experienced. I have the mirror triangles with the 3 small fins on both of my cars and they work well and don’t look bad either.

I had it in my 23 but I was much less dramatic than everyone had made it out to be. I just slapped on the AMS gloss black and noticed a large improvement.

~ I started with this route (photo below) but was less than impressed… still buffeting at certain speeds.

I'm going to add some of those little vortex generator shark fins to the A pillar, should fix it.

You have nothing breaking up the airflow from that flat pillar, so anything to disrupt it should do the trick.
