I may also just be used to less-than-quiet cars...



I'm not claiming it is quiet, but perhaps not as bad as I was fearing based on reading about the cabin noise before my purchase.

The 2017 +'s are quieter than earlier cars - possibly this had an effect?

Probably, but I've never ridden in an earlier model.


As a matter of fact, I've never even seen another BRZ on the road, and only one 86.


Rural Alabama, I guess--the 86 I saw was in Birmingham.
