I got one 2 weeks ago. It's Loud, Real Loud. Mostly from the outside but it definitely is noticeable inside especially at low RPMs. I also wanted a relatively quiet car, but the Dinan is acceptable for me. One interesting note: the past couple of days when I enter the parking garage at work, I set off the car alarm on an Expedition I drive past; must be the Dinan, it didn't do that before...
