What did you do to your Emira today?

[morphious]

I am still debating... I am sure this is a bigger undertaking than I want to deal with.

My 2 cents only, if you are worried about the sound level in the car, maybe don't buy this car?

Nothing.

Just went into the garage, looked at it and smiled.

Eh, no car is perfect for everyone. I don't blame anyone for taking a car that is as close as they can manage to whatever the ideal looks/feels/sounds like in their head and making to as close as possible to their ideal.

No one would say "oh the Emira doesn't have enough power for you? maybe don't buy this car" if someone was asking about exhaust, intake, tuning, etc.

Nor would we bemoan someone who doesn't like some aspects of factory aesthetic. Choosing new wheels, a wing, front lip, lowered, etc. They are all things that can be changed, as is, to some extent the level of noise inside the cabin of the Emira.

Will everyone care? No, will everyone care to the same extent? No. But if someone does, and they go on a project to skin everything they can in sound deadening, adding 30-40lbs to the car. That's their choice, if they are happier with a more luxury feel to the driving experience? Their choice. It might seem like there are better cars, but maybe not with all other factors considered.

I won't be adding any more sound deadening to my car, but I'm happy to share my experiences in the effort. My goal was to try to make it a more enjoyable place to be for people who aren't driving. As much as I love driving the car, I would not want every experience to be solo.

Installed the GRP steering wheel buttons. Makes using the infotainment so much better!

GREAT for you! My comment, "My 2 cents only". I have done it all to cars through my life, again, My 2 cents only. Not saying anything but MY opinion.
