This is the sound of the 2015 Mustang GT firing and revving

Add as a preferred source on Google

You’ve seen what the all-new 2015 Ford Mustang looks like. You’ve read its specs. But what does it sound like? Well, delightfully, we have that for you, too.

Yes, I’ll admit it’s not the best example of the acoustics of the updated Coyote 5.0-liter V8. But it’s better than nothing, right?

That upgraded 5.0 now makes 420 ponies, up 8 hp over the last version of the Coyote.

I absolutely love the sound of the Coyote underneath the 2015 skin. I, however, have always loved the sounds of the Coyote. The sounds I am really curious to hear are those of the new 2.3-liter turbocharged EcoBoost four-cylinder that will be wedged between the base V6 and the V8 as the mid-level powerplant. I suspect, though, we won’t hear that one roar for a little while

Want to learn more about the 2015 Ford Mustang? Check out our full breakdown.

If you’re curious to know how it drives, you’ll have to wait for our first drive report early next year. Until then, these dulcet V8 tones will have to do.

BMW is taking orders for the i3 way ahead of schedule, and it’s got a happy problem to blame
Too much demand, too good a car to make people wait until fall.
Bumper, Transportation, Vehicle

BMW planned to open order books for the new i3 sedan this fall, but now, the automaker is opening them this week instead. The reason is the kind of happy problem every automaker wishes they had.

As it turns out, too many people want to buy the car, and the automaker decided it would be rude to make them wait.
