Boss run to finish in 2013

[big red one]

Just seen this posted elsewhere

Colors: Ruby Red (RR) replaces Red Candy (RZ). Oxford White (YZ) replaces Performance White (HP).

Base V6 100A & 101A: New option called "V6 Appearance Package," option code 541.

Premium V6 200A, Pony Package 202A, and MCA Edition 203A: No changes that I can find.

Premium V6 201A: Hood Stripe, option code 471.

Base GT 300A & 301A: New option called "GT Appearance Package," option code 542.

Premium GT 400A & 401A: No changes that I can find.

GT/CS 402A: Colors limited to Deep Impact Blue, Race Red, Black, Sterling Gray, Ingot Silver, and Oxford White.

Boss 302 500A & Laguna Seca 501A: Missing, so it appears to be true that the Boss 302 was a 2 year run only ('12 & '13).

Shelby GT500: Matte Black stripes replaced by Gloss Black stripes.

That's it for now, but I'm sure we'll get more info in the next few months. Ford shows the 2014 Order Banks opening on November 12, 2012 with 2014 scheduling to start on December 6, 2012. 2013 Mustang production ends on January 11, 2013 with 2014 production to begin shortly thereafter.

Are you saying that Ford is not running the Boss in 2014? Where did Ford write this up at? I really doubted they would do another year but you never know.

 

[big red one]

was posted by a dealer on another site so does that mean just 2 years of the Boss or will there be a 481 for 2014?

2012/2012 Boss 302 mimics the original 2 year run from 1969/70, complete with 'C' and 'hockey stick reflective' stripes unique for each year. However it's very unlikely we'll see a new Boss 351 for 2014, we already have a monster 5.8L in the GT500. Would also be the best kept secret as there have been no rumors, spy shots, etc.

I'm sure a Mach 1 is coming instead.

I'm sure a Mach 1 is coming instead.

Since my 2014 Boss 351 doesn't look to be coming to fruition I'm going with this one.

 

[jeepinocala]

Mach 1 would be a cool idea for Ford

 

[Grant 302]

While I love the heritage models, I think they should have something new for 2014. Mustang GT-R maybe? Track Pack with the P springs, 18x9.5s, a 3D wing...only options would be cloth or leather on the standard recaros and rear seat delete.

I bet they'll take a year off from that segment and pick back up with the new platform in 2015 with some racing-derivative car.

Maybe they are planning to bring back the mustang II... ;D

King Cobra!!!! Yeah!!!

Let's hope not. I lost all respect for Ford for several years after that.

Here is a sobering fact: Ford sold 385,000 Mustang II's in 1974.

And my mom drove one of them, a mustard colored Ghia. :

It may turn out to be the Probe II (only we're going to do it right this time! : )

 

[gammadan]

lol mustang 2 was motor trends car of the year in 74 or75 i think. from 64 to 73 nothing. nice job MT

 

[ace72ace]

Good Lord, I remember the TV commercials for that monstrosity... "Score Mustang II - Boredom Zero"

 

[STEVE@BBR]

I think it would be a good idea. Keeps it limited like they did with the Mach and Bullitt.

 

[BLAZN BOSS]

we need a cobra jet that can be streetable.

The November 2012 issue of Car and Driver is reporting the Boss 302 will have 450 hp in 2015. ??? Are they speculating, or do they know something?

Good question. The C&D story is about the next gen Mustang.
