Actually they oversteer, most rear wheel drive performance cars will oversteer in corners. Its to be expected. It goes with the physics of the car.

Yeh you would pay $60k+ for a european car to match the performance. And maint. is a lot cheaper. Test drivers say the Boss will match a BMW M3 and a way less cost.

I still like those 60s style slanted radio antennas, sort of wish the camaro had them. But I guess it just something for someone to break off.

I think you should look a little closer. The reason it has incorrect headlights is because it's another FORD product.

Everyone has their subjective opinion however I'm not one to continuously bash on any of these cars since each have their negatives. I'm proud yet humble to own 2 of 3 and they're both cool & appealing in their own ways.

The musclecar/ponycar era is indeed alive... I have first hand experience and it's fun as hell!




But since this is a Camaro forum (and IMHO one of the current best forum out there), here's another requisite cool Camaro pic!

Agree!! I get tiresome of the car bashing, childish IMO.. You are a lucky man to have 2 of the three, I would love to have a mustang and a challenger in my stable as well as my Camaro..

I had the chance to see a ZL1 yesterday for the first time and I can say they went all out with this ride...

YUP! Just as I thought that Boss 302 will blow my doors off. Through the many years my buddy has always waited until I took delivery on a car or boat and then went and bought the next step up........but all in good fun and I really like the guy. Isn't that just what this country is all about taking the next step in good clean competition and enjoying what you got. I'm happy for him. Thanks for all the comparisons on the SS and Boss 302. Now if we do put-em side by side I'll only bet a beer or two on the outcome. he he

Are you sure the Chally was an SRT? Looks like it has R/T stripes?

Slap some headers, tune, intake and x pipe on there to even things up a bit, don't forget his boss 302 gets many upgrades over the mustang gt, so you should even things up... then it will be him buying you the beers...
Or you can just go for the extreme kill and grab yourself a supercharger and he'll be delivering kegs!!!!
Yeah buddy!!!

That's exactly what I thought.

Oh yeah.... who's selling the Boss for "30k and change"? Invoice is about $38,930 and the MSRP is $42,200.
