My 06 Coupe has road noise. Sometimes it worse than other times. I just turn up the radio.

word...our cars(atleast older models) old have about 10lbs of thin sound deadening material on the floor, not very much at all. if u want quite, best bet is put more sound deadening material such as Dynamat.

KarTuneMan: Wind noise? I have none. Have your local dealer check out the window/door seals. This is about the quietest car I have ever owned. The only noise I hear at speed is the tires on the pavement. Even when the wind is trying to push me off the road, I still hear no wind noise.
