I wish there was a serious comparo of a few sports cars..but it wil never happen. Something that measured not just interior noise but tire noise, engine noise, exhaust noise, tranny noise, wind noise. Subjective, not just decibels in total.

My 07 Cayman S was the loudest car I ever owned as far as interior noise goes. Rarely used the 9 speaker Bose system due to the wonderful roar of the engine behind my back! The 370Z's I have test driven are not nearly as loud as the CS and it is not a concern of mine anyway. Engine note and road noise is why a top level sound system is not a priority for me in a two seat sports car.

these people who constantly complain about the noise in the 370, news forya, it is not thsat loud, i have driven one and loved it. what are you buying the 370 for? it's not a buick guys, if that is what you mwant then get a buick and be quiet. sports cars are about emotion and adrenalin pump, fer chrissakes stop your winging!
