Just send the 1LE to Katech and get 530BHP, then you would have a really fun ride.

My Boss was a better car than the BImmer I traded it for, the Camaro is now better and so on and so forth.

I could not have said it better myself especially since my brother just purchased a 2013 Mustang GT! Right now I am lusting for a 1LE.

Obviously GM is in the business of offering more for less. Who says they can't do that with an LS7? If they build it they will have to not worry about stepping on the toes of the ZL1 or the Corvette.

More than a hop-up package, the Boss goes so far as to have a unique engine relative to the standard GT. The GT Track Pack is simply an option on top of the base GT that adds equipment to make it better suited for hot lapping. Similarly, the SS 1LE is an option package for the base SS to serve the same purpose.

So Motor Trend asked for a model which is not even available in 2013? Ford said they would only make the Boss 302 for two years, and that's what they did.

This sounds like Motor Trend made this entire thing up. You can't believe half of what you read in these car magazines anymore.
