If it's a tester, go to the dealer and get another one and see if you experience the same thing. I have never had such a problem in mine.

If the engine compartment cover is properly secured, the only way exhaust gases can get into the cockpit is if the wind is blowing pretty strong from the rear when you are stopped. The same would happen with any convertible.

If the engine compartment cover is not secured very well, the gases can be blown in through the openings in the cover.

Like insite said, the A/C pulls air in from the front of the car so you won't get fumes from that.

The other model you spoke of, is it water or air cooled? I ask because the air cooled may more easily pull exhaust in since there is so much air movement going on around the engine.
