Since I bought my 2011 Elantra touring I have found it quite noisy.
I can hardly speak with my wife when driving in the rain and music needs to be loud for me to hear any words.
The noise seems to be a good mix of engine (3200rpm at 118 km/h(73mph)), wind noise and tire noise

This morning I downloaded a decibel meter on my iphone and measured on my way to work with no talking and no radio
I got an average of 77db on streets and 80db on the highway at 118km/h(73mph)


what are you guys getting?

I tried a new 2014 elantra GT at the dealer and barely noticed a difference in noise(3db)

Feel however that mine had much more wind noise
For step 1 I just ordered the windkeeper sillicone trims for SharkRacing.
We shall see if this helps a bit.

For stage 2 I have a full car kit of dynamat that will be installed this summer
