The undisputed and timeless American icon, the Ford Mustang is the most famous and sought after of the overseas muscle cars. This specimen is part of a special limited edition series: the Boss 302. The original was marketed for the first time in 1969 and was developed to become the new reference point among the Blue Oval sports cars, as well as to enter the heart of enthusiasts.
The objective of the Ford engineers, in the design of the Mustang Boss 302, was to create a racing car that could however circulate on the roads: it is not in fact an enhanced or elaborated version (such as those proposed by the tuners) but a car completely re-engineered for a driving experience that is as engaging as possible.
The team led by Mike Harrison, manager of the V8 program, has developed a specific version of the 5.0 liter mounted on the Mustang GT and capable of delivering 446 hp and 515 Nm of torque, combined with a six-speed manual gearbox. The suspension was also developed specifically for this version and lowered by 11 mm at the front and 1 mm at the rear. Parallel to the suspension upgrades, which boast five different levels of stiffness, 19 ”alloy wheels with a burnished finish and high-performance Pirelli P Zero tires were fitted. The braking system has been adapted to the increase in power and was supplied by the Italian Brembo: in the front there are 14 "discs with four-piston calipers while the discs of the Mustang GT are fitted with a specific update in the back. In addition, the ABS anti-lock system has been reprogrammed for sportier operation.
The Recaro sports seats in mixed Alcantara fabric are in excellent condition and, among the safety features, there is the Advance Track (electronic stability control system), the EDS (anti-skid starting system) and the cruise control. The climate control is manual, the Audio Shaker 500 system with CD player is equipped with Aux-In and the headlights are bi-Xenon.
This specimen was registered in 2011 and officially imported from the USA through a specialized operator in the sector. For sale for inactivity.
Anyone looking for thrilling performance with this thoroughbred stallion will not be disappointed. The frightening acceleration of the roaring V8 literally takes your breath away and confirms that this car is not for everyone, but only for true purists who can tame this beast without being overwhelmed.
Absolutely awesome!
