Just got the June 2011 issue of Grassroots Motorsports and it was bagged with an "Official 2011 Fanguide to World Challenge Racing." It's a really nice piece. It's magazine quality and 82 pages of car profiles, driver profiles, schedule information, etc. No Boss highlights, but for magazine collectors it establishes and covers the Boss in racing. There is also a nice Ford Racing advert that features the Boss.

I do not know if this is bagged with the newsstand version.

I guess I am becoming a collector of Mag covers too. On #6.

 

Not a magazine, but I did manage to pick one of these up off of eBay, it was delivered today.
2012 BOSS 302 Laguna Seca info card (aka hero card), for the Grabber Blue one-off that was auctioned at Barrett-Jackson to support the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation. I'd really like to find another so I can frame them together and be able to see both sides of the card.

 

I almost snatched one of those up too.

 

bump..... we need to put these in one list.

 

I'll consolidate the list later on and put it in the first post.

To add to the list the new 5.0 mag has a great write up on the Roadrunner engine.

 

picked it up over the weekend, which is why I thought of this string.... hadn't finished the article yet, but it was/is the most informative that I've seen.

 

If you have not picked up the 2012 Mustang dealer brochure grab it, they are always hard to find in a couple of years. My dealer finally got them, has a silver on the inside cover, a black on page three and the center is Boss (and Mustangs) new and old. It is different then the one you order over the phone from Ford.

 

Friends, You can get most of the magazines the feature the boss on the cover from a single source, for $10 each shipped:

I came across this today while looking for a back issue of motor trend that misplaced.
Its annoying they want to charge $3 shipping for each issue, but convenience was worth it for me.

Cheers,

I think that I have most of them now. The Top Gear one is the hardest, me thinks.

 

Had to get mine from a Brit on eBay. Shipping was costly but what isn't these days. Still not here though

 

Top Gear's website shows a comparo in the July 2011 issue which includes the Boss. My local B&N still has the May 2011 issue on the stand. If anybody subscribes, please let us know when the July 2011 comes out.

 

I guess the July issue is out because someone in the UK posted the following on another forum-

Across the pond reading the July issue of Top Gear magazine and they have a shootout among the Corvette Carbon, Camaro SS, Challenger SRT-8 392 and the Boss Mustang.

Conclusions were as follows:

Rolling through the tunnel onto the track the next day, there isn't much doubt in any of our minds which of the four wins here. The Vette, for all its brilliance, prices itself out of the ballpark. Muscle cars should be affordable brutes. Which leaves three.

The Camaro is a great modern representation of its storied forebears, but its cartoonish appearence and lack of driver feedback place it third. We hope the new ZL-1 is more involving. The Challenger, the most classically correct muscle car, takes the runner-up step for its gutsy engine, and road-owning presence. But, like the race that will be run in a couple of hours, it was always going to be the extraordinary Boss 302 Mustang which was going to win.

All the other cars here are good, but the sorted Stang is a new great, and close enough to worry the Vette. A Pony car has never been faster, handled better or felt as complete than this. Good work, Ford. Good work.

 

You can buy a single issue of this months Top Gear UK edition (July) that has the comparison article at this link:

They will ship to the US... They have a few left.....

 

 

just ordered the Top Gear 1!! nice
there's also a write up in the May 2011 Maxim, May 2011 Mustang Times, A/W April 4th, 2011 and also a great write up about the Coyote Engine in Mustang Performance Fall 2011

 

I Love My Boss mag collection

 

Thanks Jason, that is just what we needed.
I just got that Top Gear hand delivered from a work assocaite from the UK. He was over on business and I asked him to pick up a copy.
When I picked up my car, my dealer also gave me a Ford publication from Jan this year with a two page Boss Preview spread.
I need to do the cover photo layout like you did.

Mike

 

Definitely let me know if you come across anything I may have missed
