Nissan 370Z Forum  

Just test drove a 370z

Road noise in the coupes. I think your roadster's wind noise drowns it out.... :P

Actually several reviewers have pointed out that with the top up the roadster is actually quieter than the coupe. They attribute it to the fact that the passenger compartment in the coupe is not separated from the cargo area while in the roadster it is.

I don't think the Z is particularly loud, crap it's a lot quieter than my 911. Anyway, my 05 Mustang GT conv. that I traded for the Z was a lot louder.

Noise doesn't bother me much though, I've got Def Leppard and The Stones up high when I'm toolin along, makes me feel young again...

I second this observation.

If the top is up, it must be parked.
