Description

Why is the Boss 302 back? Aside from pressing all the right nostaligia hot buttons and providing enthusiasts with a high-performance car that’s good for the road or the track, the real reason might be the engine. Without a “302” there could never be a Boss 302 in the first place. The new Boss wasn’t possible until the 2011 model year when the 412-horsepower 5.0-liter V8 (302 cubic inches) replaced the 4.6 in the GT model. Thus the road was paved for the revival of the Boss 302. But just what kind of nostalgia are we talking about, here? (LAST UPDATED DEC. 2010). By Malcolm Gunn, Wheelbase Media. The AutoPilot feature is a 700-word (the length varies slightly depending on subject) new-vehicle story plus high-resolution artwork, page layout and separate text file for maximum layout flexibility. Specs too! Please note that the .zip files range in size from 20-50 mb.
