Touchless car wash

Anyone have bad experiences with / recommend against putting my BRZ through touchless car washes?

I have gone through a few times and only have one issue. My drivers side window leaks a bit, but the weather stripping is worn. You should have no problems.

Pretty much the same experience as Ramn. No major issues with it. Although I avoid the touchless car washes that have rails and instead go into the ones where I park in the middle and the thing sprays around the car.

My driver side window leaks as well around the rubber part that separates the small window and the bigger window next to the mirror.

I go in during the winter to remove all the road salt.

The only thing to be cognizant about is that it can strip any existing wax you might have on the car.
