wind noise?

Did any of you see the article in todays usa today? It was about how low wind noise is to the development and sales to a vehicle and its perceived quality. I find that laughable because my C2S is noisy. And all of the other 911s I've riden in have been noisy. I love my C2S, but I'm wondering how the 911 got on that list.

Yes. I think the relatively high roof line contributes to a rather noisy ride at speed. I find myself checking to see windows are closed. As for the article..........?

Cabs were probably exluded from the list I assume, but yeah, I wouldn't say my coupe is particularly quiet.

I think your wind noise is loud due to your car mot having a roof!

As for wind noise, I don't hear any...perhaps my exhaust makes the wind noise insignificant.
