New Focus Zetec coming my way !!

[rider007]

Hi All,

Well I have signed up for a Silver LS Zetec demonstrator exactly like Forest Bears. I pick it up on Saturday and will post some photos also.

As usual the dealer is offering paint and rust protection packages at " Special " prices which I will ignore but what did interest me is the " Sound Deadening " pack which , quote " is a fibre reinforced product applied to the underbody of the car to reduce road noise and protect the underside .
Benefits are:-
Reduce road noise by up to 60 %, tyre whine and vibration
Insulation against extreme temperatures
Takes load off air con - more effiecient cooling and heating
Quieter more comfortable driving
Lifetime Guarantee.
Total cost $475. "


Considering that the Mazda 3 , Focus platform is known for it's tyre noise problems do you think this is worth the $$ or is it more of a con ?.
