Track Key for the 2014 GT's

[mcmmotorsports]

BUWHAHAHAHAHAHA!

Disagree, motor is definitely the heart, but it came with suspension. Of course anyone could do that with a GT. But watch any video review and they even say, it the best Mustang made, engine with the suspension is a perfectly matched combination

The suspension is good, but, as some trackers have mentioned, there is still tremendous body roll, and camber plates are a necessity. If CC plates and stiffer springs were stock, I would agree. Good to hear from you Johnny boy.

I believe it is the most important thing...but I gotta disagree. Well, unless you'd pay me $43,575 for a new Boss engine Then, I'd agree.

It's not just the price, it is the warranty, and Ford's pledge to cover the cost of a new engine after a couple years of running 5000-7000 rpm on the track. Anyone, myself included, that has had warranty work done will agree.

Devastated! My car is a 2/13 build . . .

FS: common GT/bosswannabebutneverwill. Will never be worth anything. First $tree-fiddy takes it.

I'll give you $3.02 and not a penny more!

Someone called Ford Racing and was told TK for the GT is not released yet but when it comes out it will work for late model 2013 and all 2014 manual GTs.

goddammit! I just spent my TK money on MM camber/caster plates ("deal of the day").

^money well spent

I'll admit I really don't care. The trackey was a nice novelty for me while I used it. Most owners of gts would be better off with the ford racing tune I would think as it actually gives you more power.

Tk can be had for around 220 from tousley and others and about 100 for labor install.

We'll guys, it's technology and we have to deal with it. Soon other manufacturers will do it and it will be better but on the bright side. We have boss 302s and
we have cool stripes.

Get over it, drive your Boss, and smile!

You mean....*gulp* turn it on and let it out on the roads where outside air can get on it. I refuse!

I can not imagine how I will feel IF the 2015 base GT or even the V6 beats the current Boss 302 at the track

We will create another thread like this.

To be honest the Boss's exclusivity means ENGINE, period.

The engine is what I thank Ford for, otherwise, I am not impressed with "tighter" suspension system they put on it, I think they had to make it more track car than street one, the Boss was supposed to be a race car with a license plate, or at least give an option for people who can live a little more NVH than average Joe.
They could've done a lot to the suspension to impress.
So to me, the Boss means a great engine and may be higher resale value due to its name " Boss 302"

The E46 3 series was faster than the previous M3, etc etc. Ford would be crazy to put out a new GT with IRS that didn't crush the old car, including the Boss.

This is true, and other then liking the look of the new Mustang the IRS and lighter body makes me consider trading or selling my Boss for one.

 

[cosm3os]

I dunno if I'd go that far!

 

[TMSBOSS]

I dunno if I'd go that far!

Exactly. I would rather make a new spot in the garage and have both.

I did not buy the Boss to have the fastest, best turning car on the road for ever.

I bought because I liked the package.

 

[cosm3os]

That's right. My wife's kia had 36 more hp than my e36M, but I preferred to drive the M!

 

[Brandon302]

I don't have the luxury of owning more then one car currently, it would of course come down to which car is the more fun, which I am sure the Boss will win out. I have never driven a RWD IRS car so all I know is the crude SRA. Might end up feeling too spoiled in the new Mustang.

I can't imagine looking into my garage and not seeing the masterpeice that is the BOSS. It may not be the fastest, most technological, or even best looking car out there, but man. There is an ora that the car gives off that just oozes "cool". It gives me that tingly feeling that I used to get when I would see a Mustang in a parking lot or on the road that I thought I could never afford. To me, this car is an experience just looking at it, then I fire it up and ooooooooohh, smiles for miles.
As some of you on this forum have shown, you can make this car keep up with or beat cars worth waaaaay more by just adding some aftermarket items. If you want to sell your peice of history because Ford did to a new model what alot of you did or will do to your BOSS, go ahead, we'll see how happy you are about it after the newness wares off of your "15. If you don't miss your BOSS, then you just don't get it. To each his own i guess.

Lol, I am sorry but the new Boss IMO is not a piece of history, and the uniqueness of the Boss has worn off for me. In no way is anything on the car special. The front splitter is on the CS, the brakes are the same on the Brembo and Track Packs, the decal can be bought. I am perfectly fine with the car but I could have bought a GT and made it just as quick with half the pretension.
