My Car (2005 Manual Mustang GT) makes a vibrating sound when it soft accelerates in the back of the car. SOunds like its in the trunk. It sounds like something plastic or something is loose vibrating sound.

the sound is so loud it is embarassing because people 20ft away can hear it.

It is just an annoying sound that sounds like its a cheap part gone bad.

Car is in Excellent Condition and no major incidents have recently occured during the beginning of the rattles

Chances are you have a loose heat shield on the exhaust system. Take a rubber mallot and tap on the exhaust to see if you can duplicate the sound.

Let me know what you find.
