Tape measure is a bit cocked there but more than 1/4". Still not even close to any contact.

I believe so, yes.. but the passenger window is precariously close to hitting the quarter panel as well. I very rarely have passengers so I’m wondering if that’s the only reason why it’s safe so far.

can you close your door very slowly and see if the window is close to making contact?

Ooouch. Good luck. But, that would not pass Tech Inspection for a PCA event in our region. Sorry this happened.

Well, I’m just gonna take a step back here and say I hope everyone gets to enjoy their GT3 the way it was meant to be, and not have to worry about things like windows cracking due to poor assembly, materials, or both. This could be a multi-stage issue with more than one fix needed.
Hope everyone gets it sorted.
One thing for sure I’ll say is that Porsche does a great job picking up the tab when they are wrong.

I tried this, and the front side window comes within less than 1/16" of the leading edge of the rear side window.

I just tried this and the door window does get a bit closer when you open the door because the window shifts down slightly and towards the side window . Still had about 1/4" clearance though when I re-shut it. I can see how a little misalignment can cause contact.
