Does the Boss have power seats, or were they deleted to save weight?

Are there actual pics showing the cars in each color offered somewhere (LINK)?

I'd sure like to see Yellow, Orange.

My co-worker was out on lunch and saw someone driving a 302 LS in Flat Rock, MI, said it was sick looking.

I dunno, but if you have to ask, I'd say this probably isn't the car for you

Manual seats would be fine by me...

A plan ?

Hello All! First off i would like to say thank you to everyone for all the information on this thread so far. I am a new member and have just a quick question. I know their has been some guesses at msrp and some people have even hinted at dealer mark up. However, I have always got to use A plan priceing on all ford purchases i have made as many people in my family work for ford. Does anyone know if im being unreasable thinking i can do the same with the Boss?
Also i was lucky enough to be at laguna seca the weekend of the unvailing and let me tell you first hand these cars are amazing. Thanks again

I'll be shocked to see a Boss go for A/X-plan at some point.

I've only seen a pic of the passenger seat - no power controls for that one.

There is no need for power seats. How many times are you really going to be adjusting them that you can't just reach down and lift the lever?

Well, my partner has a bad back, and power seats help her out quite a bit. It's not a deal breaker, but it seems to me that the Boss would not have power seats at 45 pounds each.

The Boss starts life out as a base GT. No SYNC No Shaker 500 No Lether or Power Seats.

Going to be one sick car. To bad I don't have the money. Hopefully somehow I can get one.

This car is amazing, I am so glad to see Ford did it right. The last part says it all, “We were either going to do it right or not do it at all – no one on the team was going to let Boss become a sticker and wheel package."
That said I cant see any way in the world any one will get X/A or any other plan pricing on this limited run super car. You may get X/A plan pricing on a Shelby GT500,there's plenty of them to go around, but the dealers are going to mark the Boss's way up. I doubt anyone will get one for under $50k. Thats just my opinion, but these cars are going to be limited and very desirable by collectors and all.

Attended the last two, but staying home this year. Keep your eye out for the Boss.
Ford is known for driving special cars down Woodward for this event - Covered 2010 Mustang GT, Focus RS etc.
