Boss is now #3, and...

...I don't care, I still love it. First the mighty ZL1 comes and steals my thunder and quickly thereafter the Shelby GT500 comes out all buffed and ready to take on the ZL1 (Still say it's a drivers race, wherever it's run). I'm still happy with my car and even more thrilled to, hopefully, get a chance to cruise alongside a ZL1 or GT500 and for that matter the newest Challenger (in the kick ass colours I wish Ford and GM offered) in the near future. Great times for us car folks.

See you all at the next track day or cruise night. Have a great weekend all!

I still think your Boss will go down in the history books as the most complete Mustang ever built.

That's the perfect attitude . The only person a car has to satisfied is its owner. There will always be faster/nicer/more expensive cars...

I love the Boss. I remember the first time I saw it and my mouth dropped. It's a really nice car.

George Jetson probably wished his inter galactic car was just a little faster. It never ends. Erik

If you ask me, the Boss is the best value out of all 3. You're getting a ton for your money there.

Thanks for the kind words guys. Glad to see people who get me hang out here. I may rag on the Camaro from time to time but I still love that it's back, bad and beautiful. And it's all in good fun like back in the day when I had a Cougar, my best bud a Charger and a couple of the guys we hung with a Javelin and Camaro SS. We were relentless. Too bad the V6 guys are so sensitive. Think I may have teased them too much today and offended a couple.

I saw a new green Boss a couple weeks back at a car show. Looked awesome in that color.

The Boss is badass in its own right. The GT500 is obviously going to be faster but all indications are that the ZL1 vs Boss will be a closer race than GT500 vs ZL1 by looking at the trap speeds

Nothing wrong with the Boss. I like it a lot more than my 2011 GT500. My car has been getting tons of attention at Cruisin OC this weekend. The ZL1's won't run me though... :(
