To effectively sound dampen the Z, you're apparently going to be adding quite a bit of weight to the vehicle. Depending on your reasoning (reduce speaker rattle, reduce outside noise, reduce drone) there may be some specific things you can do other than all out dynomatting the entire vehicle.

Other people just turn their radio volume up.
That'd be me. But, road noise, a bit of a rough ride, droning, all that is part of what makes my johnson rod drip. It's supposed to be a sports car. Or a sporty car. Sometimes, I want to feel it and hear it. And if I'm in a more casual mood, I'll just crank up the thump.
