I recently traded up my perfectly running at 107K miles '99 GT with a '06 GT and am going through some shock..
I've had 3 Mustangs before, 1st one being a V6 (learned to drive in it), second one 5.0 V8, last one being 4.6 V8. The newused one, '06 is also 4.6 V8.
I absolutely LOVED how my '99 GT sounded when I started it, how the engine sounded/felt, how the exhaust sounded. Everything I've owned at to this point is stock, nothing is mod'd.
I got the '06 GT and am a bit disappointed by its sound. What changed???? It doesn't sound nearly aggressive and offensive as my '99 GT did. With my '99, I knew when it started, when someone else started it (like at the mechanics), and when it drove away. It just had that really really strong sound to it, and I couldn't help but admiring it as mechanics would drive it away.
Can someone tell me what the basic differences are and what might be causing the difference in how they sound?
Thank you~~
