I'd rather not get a boring as hell four door sedan to proclaim I'm a tool in while I wait for my Boss, but it works for those ordering an Audi.

Lead on what? Ford doesn't need to follow anyone.

Audi's lead on what?

I just traded my S4 in a few months ago for my new mustang. I have 0 regrets, what I gave up on fit and finish I picked up in performance, fun and reliability.

I also picked up tons of gadgetry the S4 did not have.

An s4 is boring to look at but fun to drive! I'm sure the Boss will be a lot more fun and nicer to look at - agreed
But getting an 11 GT to drive for a while as our order dates pass would be nice

I guess nobody actually read the article link
Audi gave the guy a leftover S4 to drive because they were late in getting him his car and sped up the plant for him

S4 is underpowered and overpriced. I like Audi's too but Ford needs to follow them?

Yeah, the link sent me to only the pictures of the post. I think that's what the others are talking about.

...and as for the S4 being fun to drive, that's like a mom trying to tell her cheerleader daughter that the nerd next door has a lot of interesting things to say... she can hold out for the hot guy who is also smart(that one was for the ladies thinking I was sexist in my analogies).

It's because of the daggone audi union that the link went to the pictures of Audis. I hate Audi and the Audi union. Oh wait, this isn't the sticker replacement thread...

Carry on.

Hell if I overpaid for a volkswagen like that guy did I'd expect red carpet treatment too!

For the kind of deal you are getting with the Boss 302, they owe you nothing.

It is a great car that is fairly priced. As a company selling a product, they need consumers to purchase them to continue to make a profit.
