Ford brought back the Boss 302 for the 2013 model year, and they have given it a new look, more horse power, and most important in the Boss series, better handling. But how does this car stack up to, the less expensive GT, and can it offer the same trill a Shelby has? I look all of these cars on a test drive to find out
First off the tail lights now have a "smoked" look to them, and the turn signals are in sequential function, some people dislike the idea, but honesty in person it looks fantastic. The new Mustang also has a new option called Track Apps, it is located in between the tachometer and the speedometer, you can track the acceleration, braking, and even G-forces that are being applied to your car in corners, other things you can check on include, cylinder head temp, intake temp, and oil temp.
On the performance side of things, the Boss gets a larger manifold which produces 25 more horse power over the 2013 GT model, but power, is not the shining light of the 302, it includes larger ani-roll bars, lower control arms, lowering kit, upgraded struts and springs, and a 3.75 gear set. all of this stands out from the GT model and you can tell, after driving the Boss 302, I knew exactly what the cars limits were, and felt confident going into the coroner, although the same cannot be said about the GT, I felt the back end sliding through the entire corner, not to mention I had no confidence on what the car would do.
I hear people talking about how the Boss 302 is the biggest rip off of all time, and it’s not worth the extra 15 grand to buy it, and I’m here to say that the biggest lie I have ever heard, its the best Mustang by far.
