Just got the 2003 Touring Z, and WHOA! wadda car!

The media hype dissed the road noise, and now I know what they meant. First thing I'd like to remedy... suggestions welcome.

Welcome painter!

You get used to the road noise. It's not a luxury car but I guess if it really starts to bother you, you could always dynomat the car (or something similar) to deaden the outside noise.

Welcome! :welcome: i think it is time to change out your tires if you want to reduce the road noise, but like trackz03 said, its a sports car. Road noise will always be around to bother you, whether you like it or not

Welcome! Road noise hasnt really ever bothered me. Like evertone has said its a sports car, not a luxury sedan so it has to be expected a little. Enjoy the Z and the site!

Noise? What noise? Marilyn Manson is always screaming in my car...

Welcome to the Z family! I too have a '03 Touring. So much fun, so little time.

The road noise is not the worst thing about this car... and I doubt that there is anything 'worse' about a Z. I'll just crank up the BOSE ...and the RPMs. I'll be OK!

Thanks for the replies.
