Default 2012 Lexus IS 250 AWD Tunnel Noise

I just bought a 2012 Lexus IS 250 AWD and when I go 30-40 MPH it makes this tunnel noise... Perhaps it sounds like a boat taking off in a harbor?? I have never heard anything like it in my life. I have been in Lexus cars before and they were quiet. Does anyone else have this problem? Is it normal?
(I am unsure of where the noise is coming from, it just sounds like I am traveling through a noisy underground tunnel.)

Check for leaks in the exhaust system. Near where you hear the sound coming from.
