. If the stripe delete option also deletes the roof color then I may still go Kona if not I'm definitely doing White w/ Black.

I'm on the fence about whether I want Kona Blue or Performance White. I was really leaning toward Kona until I saw you can only get Kona with white . If the stripe delete option also deletes the roof color then I may still go Kona if not I'm definitely doing White w/ Black.
. If the stripe delete option also deletes the roof color then I may still go Kona if not I'm definitely doing White w/ Black.I'm sure some will criticize me that It changes the BOSS look, so, when & if, I sell it, whoever purchases it can change it back if they so desire. IMO should not hurt the value (I don't care anyway) it's a toy for me not an investment.
So my advice, get your favorite color and then tweak it to make "YOU" happy. Heck, you could remove the white tape and replace it with black, if that's what you truly desire.

I was considering that option as well - Kona with stripe delete and paint the roof once I get the car. It just seems silly to me that Ford can't offer more color options and graphics choices. The limited color options and and graphics choices continues to be my biggest disappointment with the Boss. Ford really could have done soo much more than they did in that department.

My thinking would be to not get the stripe delete, then order the black hood and side stripes to replace the white. I'm also thinking black vinyl for the roof so the original paint would still be there if I change my mind.

I've thought about doing the same thing on the roof. Have you ever seen this done and will it look as good as a painted roof? Where could you get the vinyl to do this?

Ordered my Boss 302 this afternoon after computer software was updated at the dealer. Performance White(HP); Recaro Seats/Torcen differential. I had the only allocation for a 2012 Boss at Champion Ford, Katy, TX. Dealer is buying GT 500's from all over the country and the showroom has only Mustangs on display(5 Shelby GT500, 1 GT and 1 other performance Mustang). Dealer hopes to get more Boss allocations by selling more of the top end Mustangs.
What did you work out with Champion - MSRP, above MSRP, or below MSRP?

Can you give me the name of your Sales Rep at Champion? I would like to contact him to see when and if he gets additional allocations. Most of the Houston area dealers are wanting over MSRP for orders.

Champion does not charge over MSRP and I don't know at this time what my discount, if any will be. Have you checked Mack Haik Ford. Several months ago they stated they never sell over MSRP.

Thanks, I will check with both Champion and Mac Haik and see what they will do. No way I am paying over MSRP, I would rather wait til things cool off then overpay and regret it later.

If you look at the black vinyl used for for the side stripes, it is as glossy as the paint. It's a question of getting good quality material. I'll try to find a reference for material.

BTW, here is the response from Joe Meyer Ford:
"The approval that I recieved from my new car director is $10,000 over MSRP because this mustang is a limited edition and we will only recieve a couple. I can special order the mustang for you however, it requires a $5000.00 non - refundable deposit."
What a joke, I would never buy a car from them.

That would be very surprising, I have an inquiry into them so I will find out when they open tomorrow.
