I have the same issue with ours. Drop the rear windows just a tad and not only does the buffeting stop but the interior cabin noise drops significantly and the entire car cools off quickly.

This happens on a lot of cars and opening another window usually solves the problem, it has to do with the pressure when only one window is open. The window visors will also help cut down on some noise if you drive with the windows down a lot.
