i haven't noticed anything unusual... it's pretty quiet... even compared to the old E53..
as for the hood....boy what a difference!! i had to close it very gently for fear that it would crack or fall apart!! i think they got too carried away on weight savings...

They porked out the E70 ...they had to shave some stuff
somewhere, imo. Sorry to read you still have noise, L... Hey, what does everyone expect from a $70G car?  Keep the tunes up, but not "too" up...most of us Boomers are deaf as Beethoven, ('cept for moi,  ).BR,mD

They've got to cut costs somewhere folks!
There are many places where the new BMWs don't feel as strong/well-built as their predecessors. The hood on the E70 does seem surprisingly light, somewhat cheap. There was a thread WAYY back here when the E70 first come out, where someone hit some debris and suffered surprising damage.

Mine is quiet ! Just checked - both highway and local roads. I mean I can hear cars going by, but only if I pay attention to it.
Then it might be wax in the ears (and my wife always complains that I dont hear half what she says
