According to this admittedly very anti-Cirrus website, an SR22 is seven
times louder than a C-182:

Interesting PDF but basically bull**** put out by a Cessna sales rep
trying to
make some sales.
Being that it contrasts a Turbo Skylane with a Cirrus SR22 & gives 101
reasons
why the Cessna is a better airplane ( & it probably is for some people),
the
facts are that 2003 sales are Cessna 182T = 47, while the Cirrus SR22 =
355.
Obviously, a lot of purchasers either didn't read the referenced PDF or
else
took it for what it was

The truth will come several years down the road. First year sales are not a
guarantee future years sales will follow suit.
