from inside the car, when the car is still cold, or been sitting for a while, I hear a kind of a 'rattling' noise as you describe, which is in time with the revs. I beleive the engine has some sort of bypass valve that causes it to sound funny until it warms up.
But yeh, the 02 engine make some strange sounds, but I've learned to ignore them since they seem to happen consistantly and at certain times like when cold.

The engine is noisy but if it is new or has changed in anyway something might be up..

Service it.
