Its name: the 2012 Mustang Boss 302. The team of Ford engineers, designers and stylists - all Mustang enthusiasts to the core - that created the groundbreaking 2011 Mustang GT has distilled a new model to its purest form, strengthening, lightening and refining each system to create a race car with a license plate. Forty-two years later, Ford has given the green light again.
That car became the 1969 Ford Mustang Boss 302, and it remains one of the world's most sought-after examples of American performance. Ford gave the green light only once before: In 1968, management approved a special Mustang - a car that sacrificed nothing in its quest to be the best all-around road-going performance machine ever created by Ford Motor Company.
