2012 Mustang Boss 302, What is the Difference?
So I found this video of the 2012 Mustang Boss 302 and I just want to know what makes this different from the Regular Mustang GT or the Shelby GT.

1) Different cams: These are more of a performance enhancer than the normal '12 GT which will most likely use the very same cams form the'11 GT. Don't be fooled by the reduced advertised torque; Ford purposefully put in a gimpy tune to hide the true potential of the Boss. You will be able to buy the performance tune and the true power will come out.
2) Forged lower end components: Forged conrods and pistons. The normal GT '12 GT will most likely use the very same lower end parts as the '11 GT
3) Redesigned intake possible including a much better breathing intake box.
4) Totally different ECU, or if not the ECU, the flash memory capacity. The Boss will be able to store 2 (TWO!) tunes at a time. Our 'Stangs can only store one tune.
To switch between the tunes, you do not need a tuner, all you need to do is put in a different key, called a TracKey. This is kind of like a MyKey on steroids. You have to buy TracKey separately, you also get the true performance tune I mentioned earlier.
5) A whole slew of suspension upgrades.
6) Overall a lighter car. As much as 200 lbf lighter? Maybe more? I cannot remember.

The Boss isn't much more dollar wise than a fully optioned GT, $40995 base price and add the two options and your up to $43465. And most people have said that they have ordered it at MSRP. There are many differences between a GT and the Boss just in the engine and drivetrain alone. There are a lot more differences in the suspension, exhaust, interior, body and wheels and tires. Should be a fun car to drive!
