RR3Germ Musk has considered this and suggested it could be a software update but in reality, once you get used to it, you don't miss the noise. Most car manufacturers spend a lot of money trying to keep engine noise out of the passenger space and after all this is not a race car.

RR3G'hamO. Oddly, since I made a similar threat you don't hear many people ask for Nordschleife any more. Point taken :-D [http://rr3.wikia.com/wiki/Message_Wall:Sirebel Sirebel, many sport car manufacturers spend lot of time for sound refining and modulating. ]I absolutely agree with you that for non-racing cars, exceptional reduction of noise is benefitial - for example Rolls Royce.On other side is sport and supersport cars, like Lexus LFA, where Yamaha was involved for best possible engine/exhaust sound.
