could be your sunroof drains are clogged. unless you were opening the door panels up?

Their located on each corner of the sunroof. to access them you have to take down the headliner...I actually last year had a flooded back floor and pulled the headliner down from the back the back 2 corner tubes were not even connected ....and just recently I had a flooded back area and reopened up everything but couldnt find anything wrong the rubes are on and not clogged so im confused as hell now. the front 2 tubes run down the front pillars by your windshield. I also when tot the dealer and bought now sunroof cover gasket and replaced it.

Unhappy This is where the floor got flooded!

I've been waiting for this moment to see exactly where this freaking
water keeps coming from to have my floor flooded like that.
Some folks described it as it was coming from inside the door panel,
and some others suspected it coming from the top roof.
Well..today it's raining and I went outside to see myself & this is where
the water is coming from: (Right underneath the dashboard by the passenger
side, see pictures for detail........

What could be the reason??? Otherwise the same rear side got wet too
but I forgot to verify where it might be getting it's water from?

water coming from those red line???

I'm still a little bit confusing on how water got flown down
those red line by the front windshield... It seems kind of
mistery My question is: if the water supposed to slide
down from windshield corner, than it must be clogged somewhere
by the wood corner to slide down under the car. Because it's obviously
not coming from side door panel, as showing in those pictures above.

Reading comprehension at its finest.

Sunroof drains.
Red lines is path.
Makes leak on floor.

See post #4.
