A few questions...

why did it keep stalling?
why was there black smoke coming out the back?
why were the brake lights not working.... maybe a mule?

That was the first show car. Not at all a production car.

Ill tell you right now, if that's the factory sound, Compared to the race car. ILL TAKE IT!
It has some bass to it, I like the overrun on of the turbo sound, as long as it doesn't sound like what kids do with Hondas and a funnel pipe.
It would be interesting after cats and baffles what it would really sound like.

My Mercedes AMG GTs has an electronic baffle that allows you to switch from quiet mode to a bit louder mode... wonder if there is anything out there to add onto the new GT... if it needs a little extra base

All the new sports cars do it for noise and pollution as well. The old car like my Vanquish you car cap off the traps so its always open much more growl. With these new cars though everything is regulated by the computer.
Try the i8 they pipe in fake sounds through the stereo.......not good.

Looks like I just jumped 3 places forward in line. Talking about non Fords in this area is genius.

Black smoke caused by fuel enrichment when a turbocharged motor is cold. There is no choke only fuel injection enrichment. The two way exhaust is used on the new GT350, so it shouldn't be a problem on the new GT.
