Drove by the dealership this afternoon on our way to lunch and caught a glimpse through the showroom windows of what I thought might have been the 2012 BOSS, but with the reflections and everything, couldn't tell if I just saw the rocker stripe, or a complete C stripe. So on our way back to work, I looked hard and realized it was in fact a BOSS. Made my way over this afternoon, camera in hand, to try to get some pics while it was still there on the showroom floor, because surely someone had already snatched this beast up. Nope.

I'll skip past all the gory details but suffice it to say the crew at Arrow went above and beyond, staying late after closing to help me get into my dream car. Cell phone pics will have to do for now, pro shots coming soon!!

^no offense, but you should not get married if you have to give up what you love...:shrug:

My Daughter is 6 going on 7 and I have had a mustang the whole time without one bit of hassle besides laying the seat forward, so a kid should not be an issue either.....

Thanks dude! His car is freaking amazing! Just picked uP the red key from the dealer, and it's unreal the difference in just the sound even! Power band really kicks in in the mid 5k's... I'm still in awe!!!!!

The red key is the "tuned" version right?

Rumor is there might be an updated tune coming soon for the red key. But I haven't confirmed that yet. Had one guy on another forum say the red key was pointless so far because the tune hasn't been finalized yet, however, like I said, I can tell a difference between the two. But, the Ford rep did say there was some stuff coming down the pike, to include invitations to BOSS specific events... :D

That is one heck of a "bit late" coming home present for yourself!

You completely deserve it man!

Thanks dude!

I have an admission to make, the red key is moot right now, so any difference I thought I heard earlier was just the difference between starting it yesterday and starting it today. It's a placebo key for now. lol. FRPP will be releasing the final tune in the coming months, and we're supposed to take our BOSS's to an approved FRPP dealer to get reflashed for the red key specific tune. I'm looking forward to it. In the meantime I'll just be hella impressed that the "stock tune" is as impressive as it is!

I thought you said you could feel the difference?! It's like placebos...the mind makes the body feel what the mind wants to feel. ;)

I never felt it so much as I was sure I heard a difference at start up.

Rich... seriously.
When are you going to have some leisure time and give me a ride in that bad boy?
Think maybe you could take a few minutes out on Sunday?

If not just tell me when.
I would be HONORED to take a spin in your new jewel with you!

P.S.
What about the Bullitt now? You going to get rid of it or something? If so let me know and I can try to find you a buyer bro.

I'm up at a dyno in Wichita Falls tonight with Matt and we got a chance to put the BOSS up. It put down 385rwhp!! Then, just for shits, we took those discs out of the side pipes and freed up 4 more horses for a run of 389.76!! And the sound is just flat out beastly!! Best free mod ever!!!

Awesome. Sucks that your Bullitt probably won't even put that much down when it's done after dropping all that money in to it.

Lol sad but true... I kinda hate having a dated motor..I I started to envy the 3V when mine had the same numbers but cost twice as much to build.

Matt's big bore put what to the ground when he was done? Around 430ish? With a 4v. I think you're gonna be disappointed.

Why did they even put those disks in the BOSS?
Dey shud have left um out!
I think low-mid 400's is great for the Bullitt man. That would have me stoked.
