BOSS Coming! Not If but When

No less than Mark Fields himself said

"We did the Bullitt, we did a Mach 1, we did the C/S. I can't tell you what the next special edition Mustang will be, but I can give you a hint."

At that point, a 1970 Boss 302 drove across the stage at the recent Ford Dealer show.

Maybe the timing will coincide with the possible Z/28 release to steal some thunder from the bowtie boys?????

Very unlikely. It will most likely look very much like the 302R, check out the 'spy' pics in the M-plate thread.

I'd love to see the Boss as a special edition between the GT and the GT500/Cobra

This is currently the worst-kept secret in the Mustang community. We'll see something by the end of the year.

Whilst I'd like that too, I think you'll be disappointed. Looks-wise, it's not going to deviate too much from the Boss 302R, so GT/CS front facia and GT500-like rear facia. But I'm sure it'll be under the hood that makes all the difference

Don't forget, externally, the '69 & '70 Boss cars were not that far removed from the other production Mustangs.

I really hope this is a Mustang that can stand shoulder to shoulder with the likes of the BMW M3. The 5.0 GT is all the Mustang I could ever need. With the Boss, Ford are just spoiling us

Ford is pretty bad at keeping secrets about the Mustang.

Maybe thats on purpose. Keep the core group who follows this hooked and 99% of the rest of America isn't aware. There are many more Camry driver's than mustang drivers.

Really?

While some things are no secret....the important stuff is left off the table for the most part.
Drums up some interest doesn't it?
Wonder if that's part of the strategy....
