According to the company, the 2012 Mustang Boss 302 is the quickest, best handling straight production Mustang ever offered by Ford. It pays homage to its track star forebears by lightening and strengthening key components, juicing up the engine, and wrapping it all in the vintage color schemes that Boss Mustangs are known for still today. The Boss Mustang is hitting the streets once again in the form of the track oriented Boss 302 unveiled at the Rolex Historic Races at Laguna Seca. Boss, however, has stayed largely in the shadows, adorning a few track-only specials sold in extremely limited quantities.
Ford’s charismatic Mustang has taken on many roles, many forms, and many names during its 46-year history, and the company’s modern marketing machine has pillaged pretty much all of them in the past decade. Mach 1. Shelby. Cobra. Bullitt.
