Welcome to nonetheless another installment of “Are you louder than a Dodge Challenger,” this time featuring the 2020 Ford Mustang Shelby GT350 R. Ford’s significant-revving snake packs a 5.2-liter “Voodoo” V8 that would make 526 horsepower and all the correct noises, and it is really our finest-credentialed contestant so considerably in this collection, which pits sporty cars and trucks from the Autoblog test fleet from my 2013 Dodge Challenger SRT 392. 

Well, type of. See, there is certainly a slight challenge. I offered my Challenger. As I mentioned briefly in the online video, Carvana arrived and picked up my purple monument to tackiness a couple months back again after making me an present that I merely couldn’t refuse. Thankfully, I acquired all the photos and films of the aged lady that I’ll by no means need to have to preserve this series alive quite a lot indefinitely. Lucky you!

These assessments are carried out applying a absolutely free Android OS audio measuring app and the mostly enclosed room in my individual garage. For individuals who are unfamiliar with our methodology (and once more, we use that phrase considerably loosely), you can refer back again to our previous assessments with the Alfa Romeo Giulia Quadrifoglio or the Porsche Cayenne S Coupe for extra facts (or to just pay attention to either of all those exhaust notes).

As for the Ford? Nicely, this slithering retinal scar put on a rather good clearly show, but not quite respectable plenty of. Even though the GT350’s 83.5-decibel looking at places it suitable up there with this series’ loudest entries, the Challenger’s 83.7-decibel measurement is however the king of this particular hill. I’m a large supporter of the Voodoo and I would have cherished to see it just take the crown away from my previous cruiser, but it simply was not intended to be. Right until upcoming time!
