How quiet is the cabin at cruising speed?

Hopefully some aftermarket company offers a way to easily remove the horrible idea, but judging by how many reviewers basically still complain the car doesn't sound cool, I can somehow understand why they did it. Clearly this is what the car needs:

FWIW, my one car is a Miata... according to R&T

Idle in neutral: 52
Maximum in 1st gear: 82
Constant 50mph: 74
Constant 70mph: 77


So the BRZ would be quieter than my Miata, but damn, one loses its top and the other doesn't.

I understand some folks want to hear the engine sound, probably why they build those pipes to begin with. All i'm asking is.. for those of us who do not want to hear it, I hope there's a way to plug it up. I thought I heard a rumor TRD was offering a way to do that via an accessory?

IIRC Jack Hollis was quoted as saying that TRD would be releasing two filters: one would be suited to those who want more intake noise while the other would be for those who want quiet.
