Surprised this is a problem for you. No buffeting issues with either of my 997's whether it's one window or both windows down.

No buffeting issues in my 997.1.

It does get a bit busy with the windows down at speed . . . but not buffeting.

That's just the nature of driving with the windows down at highway speeds.
