3.6 owners - Do you find the vehicle a bit on the noisy side, particularly under acceleration?...
...I've had this loaner for a week now, and enjoy driving it, but I have to say that it's louder than I'd like it to be. Even under constant-throttle 50-70 mph cruising, the engine noise never disappears entirely.
I also drove it to an Acura dealer Saturday for a quick test-drive in an MDX (nice, too), and the MDX seemed quieter in all situations except full-throttle, where I'd say they're comparable.
Opinions, anyone?
Also, anyone care to compare the 3.6 and 4.2 on this point?
TIA.

That matches my observations. I compared the two back to back and write up my thoughts (see link).

Yeah, I do think, it is noiser, but the exhaust note of the car is pretty decent, so I don't mind.
