interior resonance

I have an 05 sonic blue GT 5 speed. At about 2200 RPM in fifth gear, I hear a low rumble sound that sounds like either tire noise or exhaust resonance. The pitch seems to get higher as I speed up and disappears around 2500 rpm. Does anyone out there have the same noise?

Overall, I have had no problems and have about 1700 miles.

I've not noticed anything like that at all. I have almost 400 miles on my Sonic Blue GT.

I've heard it in mine at about the same RPM. I thought it was my UD's I put on but I have a brand new engine now without the UD's and it still does it. I guess it is one of those new car quirks like some cars sound like a helicopter if you roll the back windows down without the fronts being down.
