I am going to play the devil's advocate
I don't feel that Ford treated the Boss 302 that special compared to Mustang GT:
Same platform ( Boss suspension is tighter)
Same weight ( they could've thrown some aluminum in it)
Same transmission
Same rear end, come on guys, you could've put some watts link or whatever...I don't think it was so difficult
19 inch heavy wheels is also a negative point
With all honesty, apart from hot rodding the 5.0 engine, I don't think the Boss 302 is any better than Mustang GT 5.0 ( GT 302) in case you plan to modify, which we almost all do it ( obviously not stock to stock)
Think about:
Almost all of us track people are already upgrading the suspension system heavily in the Boss
Trying to cut down on the car weight
Trying to find solutions for the bad shifting mechanism
Dealing with engine overheating by installing a bigger radiator, oil cooler...etc
Come on now, Mustang GT can get modified and get same or better results.
Yes, if they made the Boss 302, I really dreamed about, it would've been more expensive, but I would happily accept a crappy interior to balance out the cost.
Does this make sense? Or I am just trying to convince myself that I am a good driver, while in fact I suck at driving?! Lol
Don't hate me
