I am very very interested in buying the Scion XB, but when I went on a test drive of the Scion XB, it was very loud.
Is there anyway I can decrease the noise coming from the engine?
Thanks

Don't you like that sweet sound from the engine? What you really need are a couple of pipes to give it that farty sound that those Honda civics are noted for.
When I drove an XB about 6 months ago, I noted the same thing. The engine IS pretty small, busy, and noisy. But what are you comparing it to?
Earplugs would help.
Does Art still own a Toyota?

Yes. But you won't like it so much then...
Yes, the noise can be decreased quite a bit. You can read how it's done at:
