My new Boss
Moderator: Moderators
Great looking car Jim!
Have been in the pre facelift 07 plated GT. 300bhp and it felt great!
Amazing amount of car for what you can get them for. The Boss looks even better. Have to say i think less is more. The Boss is subtle where the Shelby and others just look a bit too ott!
Don't like the Camaro's interior so would take the Boss over that no problem. Would have to testdrive the Stang and the Chally before spending the cash!

The new Cobra has well over 600bhp but your BOSS can get round the track a lot faster
its a far better car and proves the BHP of the Cobra is pointless without the handling of the BOSS 302 about the same 0-60 also..but the Cobra is cheaper so thats the only advantage...some could only afford the Cobra and not the BOSS.
Love the Car

The Boss feels quicker off the mark (3.73 gears) but I reckon they are closely matched after that. The E63 will surely take over at the high end I would guess. But the two cars are poles apart in every way.Ivor wrote:That's a belter Jim, what a cracking car, now I've driven the AMG Merc, I'd better blag a drive in one of these!
Ford likes to compare the Boss 302 with the BMW M3. That’s OK on the track, the Boss does very well and as often as not comes out on top. But in every other way there is no comparison. The M3 is a masterpiece of technology from front to back. The Boss 302 has fantastic looks and a great engine, but is otherwise a typically crude American car. Which is part of the fun.
Nice one Jim, nothing wrong with crude American cars.
