Kind of a high-pitched whine?

Anyone else notice the engine is a little more high pitched than most other Hondas out there? Almost sounds like the serpentine belt could use a little belt spray.

I mentioned it a week after I got the car, they said it was normal for iVTECs to have a higher pitched tone, but this is a little nutty. Car still drives fine, pulls hard, just annoying to hear.

Some great avatars.

I can't really hear the engine since I have the stereo turned up.

Thanks fdl, I tried a search, but whistle wasn't one of the search terms I entered. I guess everyone calls it something different.
