For $40 you can install the door seals from the lower tier models, massively reduces the noise level and brings it more inline with the e9x. I did this on my car and it's very livable now on a cruise. Downside is you lose a little bit of edge to the engine noise but it's a worthy trade off I feel. I also upgraded to bavsound stage 1 speakers replacing the dire HK items, which combined with the seals makes the cabin a very nice place to be and makes it feel much more 'premium'.
How do like that BavSound Stage 1 set... that's one thing that actually pisses me off about this car... the sound system. God it really is bad. It didn't bug me at first but its one of those things that after living with the car for a few months I just can't stand. Compared to a GM Bose system its better I guess but it might be worse than the stock BMW Professional system I had in 2008 135i honestly. It's just not good!
