What does a GT have that the '13 Boss doesn't?

I know there are plenty of things the Boss has that the GT doesn't, but what does a Premium GT have (no options added) that a 2013 Boss doesn't?

Garage door opener
Satellite radio
Auto dim rear view mirror

What else?

Don't both of them have Track Apps, SYNC, & the same stereo(?)

Well the trim package. Leather wheel, interior and chrome accent pieces. Blah blah..The Boss usually comes with cloth seats and Alcantra wrapped wheel and has a unique design for the interior dash panels. It's similar to carbon fiber in look but isn't.

GT's you get the better side mirrors, "mycolor" interior lighting, I think you get a Shaker500 sound as standard in the premium, pwr seat.

Power Seats
Brighter Dash
Better Side mirrors (what's different??)
Shaker 500 (Boss gets the base stereo?)

My color is worth looking into. Don't forget the GT premium with the ambient lighting also. Those lighted door sills and cup holders are awesome.

After you have the mirror in a mirror, you can actually see the advantage. Its these little things that wouldn't have cost much to have standard on any Mustang that is interesting they left off one of the most expensive models.
The BOSS gets a base AM/FM/CD, and thin speakers.

The LS has the single glass mirror, not the mirror in a mirror.

The mirror in the mirror is a blind spot mirror. It helps with having to turn and look the the quarter windows....since a lot of people have louvers I'm guessing. I like them a lot!

The '12 Boss has the blind spot mirrors. At least the non-LS does. It's the first car I've had that has them and I've found I like them a lot. One of those things you don't realize you need/want until you have it.

I suppose it wasn't needed if you are always so far in front of everyone.

I only use that second little mirror to make sure the attained speed is not pulling the reverse c-striping off my car.
