Not the first time I've seen a "tri-piped" F-type exhaust, I started a thread a couple of years ago with a picture of an F-type I took while driving nearby my home.

Not everyone likes the same thing but WHY would you change that beautiful signature sound? And to change it to that? I can see wanting to go from the 2 to 4 set up, but 3 feels just as wrong as the stupid Justy my mother wanted for my first car (there's a story behind that, but after they sold my beloved '67 Mustang that was to be my first car we had quite the search to find what became my first car and that was one of her serious suggestions and no, I did not end up in that).

This has haunted my dreams, and like you, if I saw that, I would go around the block to make sure what I saw is what I really saw. LOL This is not a good luck, and I bet it aged so poorly it's back to the duo pipes.

The new 4 Cylinder has a single center rectangular shape. That one is fine as it defines the 4 vs the 6 or 8. But 3? Forgeddaboudit!

Does that kit come with the obligatory stickers that add 8-10HP like the ricers it attempts to emulate?

In a way I like the look.I saw it a while back and was tempted to ge an eval unit. The sound isn't always "true" in a video, it often sounds better in person

I can't see 3 in a row to be any worse than 4 in a row on a few other cars including the vette. The version that has 3 pipes close stacked, though, is atrocious.



This car has hemorrhoids.

They should stop parking next to the nuclear power reactor.
