Doubtful. Most likely doing some calibration work on the engine. I forget what the white tube is for. I see them all the time on the camo mules running around.

Five minutes after the car is out, somebody will have some kind of mod for the rear end.

From the pictures I've seen it's removable, but is mounted from the back side of the bumper cover. Basically you would have to remove the rear bumper cover to get at it. I too would prefer it matched the body color.

And while I'm at it, I really do not like those reflectors on the bottom of the rear. It's unnecessary and gaudy looking, like they belong on bicycle pedals.

As for the tail lights, I like them, but not enough to swap out my candy canes for them.

^ this times 100000000.

Taillights are nice but the rest of the rear no thank you

Exactly, engine calibration for all types of conditions and different fuels. The white tube is a thermocouple to monitor temp.

That looks hideous. At least in black it does.

Here's a start. It's not an on-the-road shot, but I took a 360 at the NAIAS here in Detroit for you:

I did see a poison green 2013 Boss leaving the parking lot at Naias yesterday, I'm sorry that I didn't have the camera ready...

I like the new style along with the '10-12s. It's different, but still looks good. I prefer this and the '10-12s in darker colors.

Thanks Jay


That's it. I want a regular Boss in SBY, lowered an inch and half and sitting on black 20" Shelby CS56s. My idea of Boss heaven

I like everything else though ... Ordered a black gt 400a with 3.73:1, leather recaros, and polished aluminum 18's... Dying to find a pic of that 2013 wheel option.
