Washed the Gt this weekend, once again water in the boot. Anyone else having this problem? It's not a big deal because I never keep anything in there, just annoying. Thnx.

No issues on this end; have you had the boot tub out; even if not another may have as such I would simply confirm that it is seated properly and that the seal is fully seated.

Are you sure it's not water just getting in when you open the trunk? Several times in the rain I've gone to remove things and water pours in just when you open the lid, kind of like when you open the doors and your head and lap get wet.

Joey like you ever go slow enough for rain to think about entering any part of the car. Heck I think a areo force field surround your car.
Frank,
No, the water is in there when I am finished washing and drying the entire car. It appears to be coming in down low... I have about an inch of water only in the lowest point and no trail from a higher point. It's wierd

Check that the seam on the weatherstrip is at the bottom center of the tub. The second most likely source is from water wicking under the weatherstriping because the flocking on the tub is actually under the seal due to overspray. You can remove the weatherstrip, clean off the flocking and reinstall if there is any overspray.
