perhaps an affordable SE? since the BOSS will most likely be out of reach of the general population

Couldn't this be just the final on road testing of the Boss? looks to actually have 8000 rpm red line but tachometer goes to 9000.

I doubt it's an ecoboost. That's the Boss 302 front end with an MCA edition grille....the wheels are 19" 2011 SVT...I'm betting it's a Boss 302 that they are fiddling around with to see just how many ponies they can reliably get out of it.

Please put your chubbies away, it's just a Boss mule or something of the sort.

Agreed.

Pics of the interior, but no boost gauge? On a test mule?? This is a Boss and not an EcoBoost.

nothing there seems ecoboost to me. Could easily be Boss, 8000rpm redline and premium fuel tune, has the boss speedo.

Concepts which is the system to check cars and equipment and pricing doesn't have Boss pricing yet. I wish I knew more.

Can we at least make fun names for it now? Like Ecostang and Mustboost?

I've gotta agree. No one ever talks about it but I always thought the "Mustang Cobra" nomenclature was pretty weird.
