I saw that car at a car show in Lufkin last weekend. Stuck my head in the window and smelled in the newness! Then it shows up on ebay the next day. Bidding went up to $98K, and then the ad was pulled. It was a sweet car, but I think I want something that I could drive. I would've put it up for sale too. He's a lucky mofo.

BTW, he did win an award at the car show.

"This listing was ended by the seller because the item is no longer available."

Correct.

I wish sooooo bad I had lots of money. I would have crapped myself when I found it it was the first.

I couldn't agree more!

If you are a car guy who likes and wants to drive your cars hard, sell it to the 'hermetically sealed trailor' car collector for a BUNDLE of $$$ and go buy another BOSS 302.
Now you have a payed off BOSS 302 with lots of spare gas, insurance, tire and race track money!

Hmmmm... I wonder how much more he'll make if he holds onto it for a few more years?

Was at the AER show here in Addison (a Dallas suburb) and there were a three new Boss Mustangs there and I noticed one, a Laguna Seca, had manufacturer plates. The "owner" was some 30-ish dude and I started talking to him figuring he was a factory rep (I was right). I complimented him on the Boss and we were chatting about the car. It was nice to meet a factory guy who seemed to really know his car. I brought up I drove a Marauder and he got a curious look on his face and asked me what I thought of it and was it fast? I told him I liked it and that I considered it a fast car for a car that size and added that I believed the handling was really the best part of the car. Again he was interested and then I let him go so he could talk with all the other folks there. Bunches of Mustangs there at the show but glad I ran into James 79stang and Maury there, both showing their Marauders. Maury has good luck there, he won a new crate motor there a few years back. The new Bosses look nice but my only niggle was the colors are a little rough to my eyes.

The BOSS is no joke. I think Ford did a great job on the 5.0 but I think they saved all their tricks for the BOSS. The light valve train and the ability to tune the valves throughout the RPM range is truly a breakthrough for Ford. Not only that, if im not mistaken the bottom end is forged and the intake is designed for high RPM breathing without comepromising low end torque. I wouldnt be surprised if they engineered the BOSS 5.0 and the reverse engineered the regular 5.0 afterwards. Its only a matter of time before people start putting blowers on them and I think we'll see 700HP with low boost because its so efficient. Now all I need is to win the lottery.

wow - that guy just made $60,000.00 - Here is the link to the Ford site if you haven't seen it. I'd have sold it too, you could buy (2) of them - keep 1 in the bubble wrap and still have $15,000 left for gas, oil and tires...
