There's been enough hints dropped here if you look in the right places.

I like it too Patrick!

It says it has a "modified Nav screen" can wait to see....

Without the red stripes, I'd kill for this. Hmm on second thought, I think I still might kill for it. Can someone get me a hit-list?!?

I've looked in all the right places and didn't find any solid evidence that this will be in FACT the Boss front end like the thread title states. I don't think the grille will make it to the Boss, maybe the splitter will though.

I think the grill definately will make it as it is on the Boss 302r. Also it is heaveily inspired by the 1969-70 Boss grill with the Pony emblem. The Boss 302 front end was introduced some time ago with the Boss 302r.

I didn't miss the point, just saying the thread title is kind of misleading.

If you think the title of the thread is misleading, you are missing the point...

look at the grille minus the cones, and the lower fascia and that will be the boss. also the wheels...

Do you see the grill? It's unique. Regular GT's have a honeycomb grill. Now why would Ford pay for the engineering and molds to make that grill if they weren't planning on using it for a volume production vehicle. Hmmm, I wonder what that could be????

Best part of this whole package is that is says US AIR FORCE on the fender.

Mechanically speaking, in my humble opinion, this is THE perfect 2011. Slap a BOSS graphics pkg on it and it just makes it even sweeter...

You really think they will use the Shelby wheels? Guess again. I will put money on that one.

They are SVT wheels. Not Shelby. And ultimately, won't the BOSS be an SVT model? Just sayin...

The BOSS is all about performance. The SVT wheels are significantly lighter than the regular GT500 wheels. It would totally be appropriate for Ford to use them.
