Default 2013 Owners! I have A hood Question?

I have a 2013 GT. My hood shakes pretty bad at about 80mph. Does anyone else have this problem? Is it normal or should I bring it to the dealer? I have a feeling when I bring it to the dealer they will think am crazy. I am thinking maybe its from the air going through the hood vents thats making it shake but really I have no clue. Any Ideas?

Only had mine up that fast once and it was for a pretty short duration because in CA, the fine would be biblical - but no shaking at all.

Take it to the dealer - may just need the hood stops adjusted.

any time I've been in CA I'd be blocking traffic if I was only driving 80mph.

The hood is probably going to shake some when going high speeds...but if you feel it's obsessive, adhust the hood stops and all will be good.
