For the 2012 I hate not having a USB port and the ability to control an ipod via the steering wheel.

1. Lack of Bluetooth for my phone.\
2. It's black and I hate black cars. (Unfortunatley I also love black cars.)
3. I really wanted Trackey to do more. (I don't care about the lopey idle but I wanted higher revs, higher HP, more engine braking)

I am with you on the trackey....IMO waste of money (if you arent scared of making mods that may or may not affect your warranty)

Why is this in the Boss section when it applies to all 2010+ Mustangs?

The LCA's are a little lacking for the Boss, should have come with the tubular FRPP ones.

The wing on Kona Blue bosses should have been white to match the striping.

The speedo is the biggest thing that I don't like. The numbers are hard to read.

The other little things I didn't like, such as the shifter and radio, I just changed.

No, not that I have heard, however I have heard the wheel hop issue has been fixed with just stronger LCA's that don't deflect as much as the stock stamped ones.

Is that from LCA swaps only or LCA's + other mods?

I don't give a crap about speedo's, maybe I am a little green to the whole performance car thing, however I know the tach is much more important, I guess people just want to be able to say they went so fast in a straight/into the corner.

I had heard a few guys got good enough results just from the LCA's no relocation brackets and no third-link.

Just wondering if it is more in the bushings or the actual hard parts.

Could be simply the bushings, though I can imagine the stock stamped arms can flex a little more then a tubular design.
