at a steady rpm, i agree that it's the loudest at highway speed, i.e. 2.5-3k rpm. of course when i step on the gas, it gets much much louder. But in any case, it sounds no where near like a civic, so don't worry. And honestly even cruising at highway speed, it's not that loud and no where near obnoxious, so i wouldn't qualify what i hear as 'droning'

In fact, i often turn off my radio so i can hear it

I had something similar happen when I first installed my Megan Racing exhaust. When I went to check it turned out that I had an exhaust leak. I'm not saying this is definitely your problem, but it's worth a look.

If you guys think the F-Sport is a bit too loud, the lexus HKS might be right for you - no drone at all...

Ditto! No drone with Lexus HKS at any rpm. Sounds like g35.
