That's good to know. I was expecting, hoping, that the G20 would be quieter.
I'm not one to want absolute silence in a sport sedan. But, wind noise is not part of the sounds I associate with "performance".
Tire noise is largely dependent on the choice of tires.
The stock summer perf. tires on my S4 were noticeably quieter than the current Mich AS+3 tires on it now.
I'm really enjoying the Quattro AWD with my S4. I loved it in my 2006 A4. I hope BMW's X drive has improved to be additive to the performance as Quattro is to Audi. If it is, I may decide to go with my first AWD BMW for my next car.
