My nephew in Australia sent me this about the new 2012 Boss Mustang.

They raised the rev limit to 7,500 rpm so they must think the engine is plenty strong.  The quad exhaust is interesting.  I really do not like the side stripes on this one.

I wonder what the base price for this one will be?

I hate the Boss 302 LS they picture in black with all that red trim! I mean come on now, red trimmed grille, roof and wheels??? That is so ricer! and because of this every moron with a black Mustang will be doing this... :shoothead

Oh yeah, I notice it says Boss 302. I have not paid attention to the actual CID of the new 5.0 and I wonder if it is actually 302 CID or not.

I agree the paint is over the top, even the top is red. 

Just notice that there is no back seat and it has a weird cross bar back there.  If they are going to take out the back seat at least they can do is put a legal roll bar in it.

Yes it is 302 CID and it is actually 5.0L rather than our 302 which is really 4.9L (if I knew the displacement in cc's I could show this a little better)
