So Ford is bringing out the new Boss 302 Mustang in 2012. They have a special ignition key that resets 200 settings to put the car in performance mode for the track. I wonder where they got that idea?

I would not get upset about it - its par for the course.

Often times, Ford is 10-20 years behind Corvette.

At the end of the day its still a Mudstain. :mrgreen:

The onyl mustang worth a dang is the 2011 Shelby Vert. It wont hang with a vette; but' a vert that can haul ***, groceries, and two kids in the back is pretty dang good.

the new 5.0L mustang is faster then the M3 around the track...time to start taking this car seriously.

Imitation is the most sincerest form of flattery.

Good for Ford.

200 settings? Dear lord. I guess when the computer controls everything you can have all kinds of options on how it interprets your inputs.

Personally, I'd rather have a lighter, simplier car that does what its told (even if it is a bad idea).
