Can't say much about the 2011 as mine's a 2010. On my test drive I heard the noise but I was focused on so many issues (brakes, steering, transmission, seats, throttle response and more) on that brief test drive that the cabin noise issue didn't make much of an impression on me. It was only somewhat later that the noise began to be an issue for me. The noise is highly dependent upon the road surface, smooth road=quiet cabin, rough road=loud cabin.
Though I found the level of cabin noise annoying, I was never really worried about it because I knew that their were many affordable ways to address the issue. Dealing with it was just one additional way that I chose to personalized my car.
If anyone were to ask me, I would recommend the 370Z with enthusiasm. I would be candid though, and point out that the cabin may be a bit noisy for some, and anyone who intends to do a lot of aggressive driving will probably see high oil temperatures and, maybe, have brake issues. However, I would be quick to point out that all of these issues, should they even arise, can be easily and affordably addressed.
