The rattles are getting to me

I've had this car for a few months now and generally its a great car. However, the interior rattles are really starting to drive me NUTS! Every time I get in the car, it's a new rattle from somewhere else, and the previous rattle is gone. There is one behind the stereo that can usually be heard over the music, and on rough roads I want to drive the car into a tree and collect the insurance money. My wife says I'm just obsessive, but I'm seriously considering selling this car and getting something else.

Just had to rant a bit...

IT's way over 12K miles. Mazda has agreed to look into some of the problems for me. Marin Mazda has been pretty awesome so far. I may also take it to a stereo place and have them put insulation in the doors.
