2012 Boss 302 - POST all info here.
Expect an official annoucement in less than two weeks from Ford, but this is a link to an accidental announcement for the upcoming street version of the long anticipated Boss 302 Mustang. If the price is as announced, you may have to get the he!! out of my way to the dealership...

Re: 2012 Boss 302
Around $30,000? I seriously doubt that. Even if it comes in just south of $40,000, the dealers will have a field day with their market adjusted pricing.

Re: 2012 Boss 302
You can barely find a base 2011 GT for under $30k so I think that number is a load of crap as it pertains to MSRP. It's not the halo Mustang as that's still the GT500 so I don't think the $30k is an add-on number either but I predict the MSRP will be much closer to $40k to split the difference between the GT and the Shelby (probably $39,999 so they can say it's in the $30k price range lol).

The new 2011 roush's are $45k....and I think a limited Boss 302 should peak that. maybe its $30k on top of the cheapest mustang you can get? a stripped v6? that would be $22k + $30k = $52k.... I dunno...but IM EXCITED!!!!!

Re: 2012 Boss 302
Now, if they'll do a 'Boss only' Grabber Green, I'd be way hooked!

Re: 2012 Boss 302
Mine would be Grabber Orange...hoping the price might be reasonable and the feature content distinct enough.
I still like the Parnelli Jones/Saleen car - what a cool interpretation.

Re: 2012 Boss 302
Well there was some announcement where the guy (cant remember his name) was talking about new Mustangs and he said that he couldn't tell anyone what it was -- but that he could give a hint:
At that time, a Boss 302 drove across the stage from 1969/1970. He then said, "Is that subtle enough?"

Re: 2012 Boss 302
Damm, Id take any color... I'll have to wait till its like 2-3 yrs old and buy one with 2,000 miles on it like my Mach1 and hopefully save a bundle, depending on how many they decide to make, Look at the 2000 r cobra, You barely see them for sale.

Re: 2012 Boss 302
I am really seeing this going in the direction of the Cobra R.
I think its going to be a level over the GT500... A base GT 500 is 48k A Base GT is 29,600 this is the BASE CAR which we all know are few and far you can option a 6 speed manaul GT coupe to 42k with not even every option checked make it a convertable and we are looking at 46k add a california special package or a auto trans it all adds up...... The HP difference is about 125 hp between the GT and the GT500 and its not hard to get the new 5.0 gt to push another 50 to 75 hp... and still be NA.... and for the most part under warrenty. I am just not seeing the room between the 2 cars for something in the middle like out machs were to the Cobra and the GT. Also the cobra R came out in 2000 right after the body change from 98 to the 99 to 04 body we are only on the second year of the latest body change the mach came out in 03 and 04 the end of the run to stir up interest in a car with a 4 year old body style. Oh and for the most part ill bet a GT with the upgraded suspention option and the bembo package would run CIRCLES around the cobra R .... So I am really seeing this as the next generation of the cobra R......... UNLESS FORD gets smart and does this.................... The boss would be a stripped no option car remove the sound deadning crap and all of the comfert features for cost and weight savings no back seat thow in some racing seats improve the suspention and brakes do some simple tuning mods with some exhust and intake work done maybe a factory roll bar.... ..... Remember the boss is the road race car was never a 1\4 mile car... put a shaker hood on it and a nice set of boss stripes some gear options cool set of wheels and sell it for 38k

I agree with most of that, but I would like to see it closer to it's street heritage than it's racing heritage

Re: 2012 Boss 302
There is already a race Boss 302, much like there was in '69/'70, so that's pretty much covered. I would expect a street Boss to be similarly track oriented, but with all of the modern refinements. Do also remember that you could get a Boss with back then with everything except A/C and auto tranny. Even the Drag Pak could be had, and that was an obvious 1/4 mile call out. I drove a friends 3.91 locker equipped Boss and it was...memorable.
I hope the new one will be (sorry GT/CS guys) available with the 'right' features or options; Brembos, deep gears, handling upgrade and cool tire/wheels ( I really dont like the race Boss/GT500 FRPP wheels), maybe even a Magnum style wheel (now where have I seen those before?). And Grabber Colors!

Re: 2012 Boss 302
Personally, I'd rather have a classic boss than a new one. Too much fiberglass for me.

Re: 2012 Boss 302
I would love a classic Boss as well, but like the Shelbys and Boss 9s and other vintage and desirable Mustangs their prices have gotten into the stupid realm. As it would have to be a DD for me, the lack of A/C and modern suspension and driveline make a new Boss a much more attractive idea for me. If I had the money, a place to properly work on and store an original Boss 302, it would be on my short list of must do things.
