Someone has to import one to the UK first. That, or they need to cross the pond to make another 'factual' documentary.

I liked the Car&Driver article. I was leaning towards a 2012 GT500. After reading about the Boss in Car&Driver , I now want a Boss 302 LS. That was a very convincing article.

That is very disturbing, but maybe a little more disturbing is that the tester didn't apply the handbrake instead of shooting the gap.

Yep, saw that C/O Boss MP0041 last week on their Car Keys Preview, they already are jumping on the bandwagon of supporters.

Roadfly

Roadfly did a quick 0-60 test and managed to run it in 3.93 sec without the track key. As far as I know only motor trend has come close to matching this. They plan on posting a full review in a couple days.

Finally, someone who knows how to launch and shift properly (as far as testers go). That's a very respectful 0-60mph time! It will be nice to see the whole test video when they're ready to release it.
