Default making vehicales quieter

As the prices of auto are falling, the noise keeps going up. Anyone have ideas how to make them quieter. Engine and road noise especially. I would like to see decible ratings on all autos, not just the Lincoln :roll:

An increase in road noise is normal, since more and more manufacturiers are fitting their vehicles with sportier, low-profile tires instead of low-friction touring tires.

More engine noise? I think it depends on the model. Of course, since the MKZ is a more sportier car than the Town Car, people like to hear that V6 growl. Obviously, not everyone wants more engine noise, whatever it sounds like... :-)

Nah... I like it noisy. You will feel tremble in your heart when it passes you.

But if you are a family man then I'm ok with quiet vehicles.
