No one can decide what is right for him but him.
But here's a fact, things will get better every year, when does the chase end and the unfettered enjoyment begin?

The fun begins as soon as you take delivery. Doesnt matter what year model it is. I'm glad I got the 2012 and have been bustin it for 5 months. And I'm sure the guys that get the 2013 will feel just the same. I say get in as soon as you can afford it.

Not likely, especially after last night. Get ready for resale value on 12s to take a significant dive.

Scott, like Rick I like the look of the 05-09 also. It is not about the Shelby look just the look in general, just not feeling it. It's too bad they could not flatten out the hood so the entire 70 stripe would have worked, the 70 Boss had the best stripe package of any car ever built. The stripes on this are just incomplete but there are many other nice improvements like the roof being body color.

Scott, the first thing that poped into my mind when I saw the reveal pics of the 2013 Boss this morning was your car, haha, with the painted roof and all. I was waiting to see if they added the rear window louvers, lol.

That is essentially my point. Rhetorical question it was.

Plus the deck lid is painted also One of the best things I did to the car was swapping out the hood stripe with the one from promotorstripes. What a difference it makes looking out the windshield without it being so shinny. The poor louvers spend less and less time on the Boss now that I have been running better on track days

Well, I sure am liking the 2013, which is planning to have TracKey. I'm hoping I see one at the 2012-Model Central Florida International Auto Show next weekend!

Deysha can you confirm if they will have a 2013 at the Central FL Show? I checked with the Tampa Auto Show for this weekend and they said there will not be a 2013 Mustang there.

And number 5 would be the Hood is very nice including new rear bumper.

My wife thinks Im outta my mind

Maybe Im just spoiled..
It will definitely be a style preference, I prefer my 2012 for all of the opposite reasons you like the 2013. Except maybe the reflective decals sound cool. You aren't outta your mind IMO good luck convincing your sweety ;-)

I have to disagree. They will more than likely dip, but not dive.....

I believe it is all going to come down to colors and options. If you have all the options available, and whatever colors end up being the most sought after in the aftermarket.....you will probably be okay.

Us LS owners have nothing to worry about

Color options for the regular Boss 302 include School Bus Yellow, Grabber Blue, Gotta Have It Green, Performance White, and Race Red.
The Laguna Seca will be available in School Bus Yellow or Black, both of which will have gray-trimmed spoilers, mirror caps, grilles, wheels, and interior cross-braces

So The LS comes with Sterling Grey Reflective stripes and the Regular Boss comes with Black reflective stripes and black mirror caps...And YES! Both versions come in SBY!!! PLUS The stripes on the Regular Boss go up and over and down the hood....like the Green one from the SpeedTV video a while back

Reflective black stripes for regular Bosses...? What about reflective white stripes? And the rims carry over from last year?

unique functional design feature in the grille

Unlike the previous model, the roof will not feature colored accents

Taillights not sure on the front, not hating it but not loving it

Now if only they made it a G code
Agree, especially about the G code would have helped easy ID of real cars.
