Neat article according to that the recaros & brake ducting are an option with the regular boss which is cool I still think that the seat delete should be packaged with the recaros.
Imo the recaros, rear seat delete w/bracing, torsen lsd&the brake ducts should all be one package, which would have simplified it for ford and by packaging it all together it would have been pretty reasonable cost wise.
Because lets be honest about it if you want any of those options you probably going to track this car so you might as well get them all together. The things I would have left exclusive to the laguna version would be that monster looking front splitter the special wider wheels&the badges. Everything else should be available on the regular boss edition. Oh yeah the fog deletes look stupid should have slapped the dark metallic billet grille on it with the words boss in the center of it or just the letters 302 or boss with 302 below it. I also think even though these are base models to start they should have hids one because they look badass and two what if you want to do night racing? This thing is so fast you might outrun your stock headlights lol
Also all of the versions should have that pedestal spoiler because the stock v6 spoiler just doesn't look right on this car again jmo.

With all of that. Except the part about the fogs. No big deal to me. That's what the aftermarket is for.

That is quite possibly the ugliest car I've ever seen.

Yeah, that particular color scheme could have been a little less A-Team-ish. But it's still a nice ride

I think most demo cars are ugly. I think they make them that was to stick in your head.

Too bad Ford doesn't have an option to get the Boss with just the stripes / hood black out like the '69-'70.

An extra set of exhaust pipes just in front of the rear tires for more sound. Neat.

That is the same spoiler that is on the GT. In my opinion, either of the spoilers (or spoiler delete) should be optional because there is a lot of variation in what people see as aesthetically pleasing.

I like the last line.

"Ford has not yet released pricing or fuel economy figures for the car."

Who cares about fuel economy. I hope its roughly the same as the GT but it can't be that worse.
