you know, framless windows just helps the designer to mold the exterior of the car better, for such reason as aerodynamics or simple aesthetics.
But when it's excuted poorly like on car in question, you get some horrid wind noise and there were few instances where the glasses shatteres because of the lack of frame support and thin glasses.
