The Ford Mustang Boss 302 was born in 1969. Next came the speed gun. Coincidence?

For the first time in 42 years, a road racing legend returns to the streets. Why so long you ask? Simple… Ford weren’t going to release the Boss unless they could do it the justice it deserves.

Almost 50 years ago Ford introduced the iconic Mustang. With a ground breaking design and a style that no one else possessed, the Ford Mustang immediately captured the hearts and minds of everyone who saw it. Shortly after its creation some of the wiz kids at Ford decided to get together to create the fastest, best handling and most complete road going racer that Ford had ever seen.

The hard work clearly paid off as Parnelli Jones won the first round of the 1970 Trans Am at the famous Laguna Seca Raceway; giving birth to the very first Ford Mustang Boss 302.



In 2012, this classic muscle car is back! However with a twist as its sporting a 2012 body and the latest technology. Making it the fastest, most powerful and best handling Boss 302 ever created! However that meant a lot of work for the Ford Design teams; as they began to craft an exterior that’s every bit as hard and menacing as its predecessor, while backing up that bark with the bite of its 440bhp V8 engine. This car had to be special to be allowed to wear the Boss 302 badge after all, so Ford employed a team of specialist Ford Mustang Race Engineers – to make sure this car was as light, tough and race ready as possible. The result is something truly fantastic.
