To Ford's credit, no new Mustang would wear that name again until such time that the factory could put together all three race-inspired ingredients in a way that remains true to the Boss௡ 302's heritage. That time is now. Today, the Boss௡ 302 Mustang rides again for 2012 - both in name and the spirit of the original. Our thanks to Knudsen for the Boss Mustang legend, and to Shinoda for the looks and even the name itself. And now our thanks go to the men and women at Ford who have worked so hard to make sure that the new Boss௡ 302 is a legitimately worthy, race-bred successor of a Mustang performance legend! -- John M.

The Boss
±
302’s DNA of a unique 5.0-liter powertrain, superlative
handling and a direct link to racing had built a legacy over the years that
has come to epitomize what a high-performance Mustang is all about. To
Ford’s credit, no new Mustang would wear that name again until such
time that the factory could put together all three race-inspired
ingredients in a way that remains true to the Boss
±
302’s heritage.
That time is now.
Today, the Boss
±
302 Mustang rides again for 2012 – both in name and
the spirit of the original. Our thanks to Knudsen for the Boss Mustang
legend, and to Shinoda for the looks and even the name itself. And now
our thanks go to the men and women at Ford who have worked so hard
to make sure that the new Boss
±
302 is a legitimately worthy, race-bred
successor of a Mustang performance legend!
