Does it increase with the revs, not necessarily speed? i.e. if you sit in traffic and rev it, does it get louder and more consistent?
Oh and, car, engine?

Try looking under the black plastic container that seperates the cig lighter from the rest of the tray. I had a couple of coins under there that rattled. Just pull it out.

anything loose in the glove box?
also with the car stationary and the engine off try bouncing the car around and see if you can hear any rattles from anywhere
or you could turn up the radio and drown out the rattling then just forget about it
