New prototype video - 26th June
Sounds eerily similar to my GT500s + Boss H (open) exhaust setup. I know we've seen underneath of some of these mules, but maybe this one is different?
Side pipes with electric cutouts from the factory? I'd hit it!

Hard to tell with a prototype -- might be testing other components and running with a cobbled exhaust -- but yeah, this one does tickle the ears and Ford could make far worse mistakes than having the production car burble like this.
Hopefully they'll expend a bit of effort to give the V6 a tuneful voice too as that seems to get overlooked or merely made inoffensive at best, which generally means bland.

It would be a mistake to make the V6 have a more aggressive exhaust note than it already has.

Wonder what they would do if when they were sitting there stopped in traffic, some nutter jumped out and started ripping the camo off?
BS - V6 buyers love loud rumble exhaust. V6 will never sound as good as a V8 but with a few mods it sound pretty **** good. Get that from a factory part and I would pay the extra any day.
The only mistake is that closing the sound gap would be to further cut into the V8 sales. The 5.0 is great and I would love to have one but I am very happy with the 3.7.
