The sad thing is all it needed was bigger tires and rims and that alone would be a large jump in performance!

 

Thanks for that! Wow the YB does look good. That said I believe the combo to beat will be Race Red with Black! Then again I love retro.

 

Race Red w/ black would be my pick.

 

i would of like it if ford would offer the hid lights on it.. and what are those race tires on the ls anyway? what is the stock rubber on the boss is it the same combo as in the gt?

 

While they're at it, maybe Ford will throw in a huge stereo with video monitors in the headrests. Swap out the Recaros for heated seats with massage. Offer an automatic transmission. I mean, if Ford really wants to adhere to the spirit of the BOSS 302, that's what they'll do.

 

From what I read and seen the track key is included with the purchase of any Boss.

Re-read that. They've said it several times now that it's a dealer option.

 

anyone know what the Canadian prices are yet?

 

In the promo video for the upcoming show on Speed, Dave Pericak says that the red key is included with the purchase of the car. Of course, he's been wrong on details in a number of his interviews.

 

In one of the Ford video's they say nothing about the Boss 302 being limited production, just the LS model?

Is that right or are they all low production?

 

Terms like "low or limited" production are all relative. I'd bet that over the course of two model years, Ford will build enough Boss 302's to satisfy demand. Laguna Seca may be a different story, though.

 

I understood it as the key is included but the engine calibration activated by the key is what you need to buy from Ford Racing. I also assume that you have to go to the dealership to have them download it into the car so the key can cause it to be in effect.

 

Don't fall into the hype, Ford has yet to produce a Mustang in the last 45 years that didn't meet consumer demand!

 

Simple fix:

bluetooth, nav, etc. this is the route I went in my Bullitt that gave me these functions while allowing me to keep the S1000 system.

 

They should get rid of the AC and power windows. Both would reduce weight and would truly be in the spirit of the Boss 302.

The fact that some people want a few options, again who the hell doesn't want a security system in their Boss!?, is no reason to try and demean them.

 

I'd be perfectly fine with that, but since Ford doesn't make any Mustangs without AC or PW like they have in the past, it wouldn't be as easy as it was years ago.

I wouldn't want a security system on my BOSS, there you go. The factory system included in the basest of current Mustangs along with the chip in the key are more than enough for me, and I'd never want anything more.

 

I don't like the fact that there isn't an intrusion alarm with the base passive system. Think of how much fun Escalade owners have since no alarm goes off when the driver's window gets smashed in.

 

I think if the B302 came with the Security Package, everyone would appreciate it. Doesn't need to be extremely elaborate, but it would serve a purpose.

 

The BOSS 302 is a niche vehicle. If you want gewgaws, get a GT Premium.

It's like saying, "I want a Lotus Elise but I'd really like it to have a room for four, 16-way adjustable power seats, a commodious trunk, 20-inch wheels, and radar cruise control." If your perfect Lotus Elise sounds like an S-Class Mercedes, maybe what you really want is an S-Class Mercedes.
