Default 2008 Accord noise

I have a 2008 Honda Accord LX-P. When I drive it, I get this noise coming from the tranny/CV-joint area that sounds like a single prop airplane getting ready to take off. The faster I go, the louder it gets. I don't know if this is normal. Does anyone else have this problem. If so, do you think Dynomat will cure the noise or should I just trade it in?

Yeah, that's not normal. Sounds like a CV joint. Take it to a good independent shop and have them listen to it.

Trade it in if you have no patience for repairs. And dynomat...why not? Just ignore it. Haha.

Time to take it to a shop and find out what's wrong with it before you have a breakdown on the road.

Thanks for the replies. I didn't think it was normal. This is my first Honda and I bought it because they make a good product. I know an independant shop here that specializes in Honda and Acura. I'll see what they have to say. Thanks again!
