Hey all,

First time poster here---looks like a really great forum!

I just noticed a crack about 4 inches long in the rear glass, near the cell antenna. It extends from the top egde of the glass down toward the trunk.

What do you think the risks are of high speed driving and implosion of that rear window? The first thing I thought of was a couple years back when numerous 911 C4's had unexpected blowing out of the rear glass at high speeds....
