!!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! is an accomplished and skilled driver. He races a Super Production class Subaru Impreza WRX STi in !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! with Karen Jankowski (a class that they won overall last year) and more recently, he has been driving a 2011 Ford Mustang Boss 302 sponsored by !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! in the !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! GTS class. Now, you can own one of those cars. Now granted, most Boss 302's are selling for $40-45k, so $85k might seem high, but this is a fully prepped and ready to go race car.

What do you think?

I've seen one Boss 302S for quite a bit cheaper around the $50-60k range.

You can get a brand new one from Ford for that AE's ask. I'll have to call CP.

Edit: oh it comes with a bunch of installed upgrades and extras. Not terrible I suppose.

The problem I have with this is that for the same price, you could build a more street-worthy Mustang with about the same specs, and then you wouldn't feel bad about improving it further and ruining a good race car.

That's pretty cool, I think brand new Boss 302S's were 85K though. No idea what the racing does for value. I wonder if its being sold in preparation for the 2015's....

True, but you wouldn't be buying this to drive on the street (you legally can't). You'd be buying this to actually race.

Looks like a good deal to me. Spares included are worth a fortune. They even left in stuff that would normally be removed like helmet blower and cool shirt stuff. Certainly cheaper than trying to assemble this stuff from scratch.

Agreed. For all that's included this is a deal

yeah if its legal for a current race series this seems like a no brainer to me... now uif its not a current formula still, you just have an expensive track day car....

legal race car —- hell yeah

Bad ass track car./... yes but pricey

what part of fully prepared race car for a current series did you miss.

your not going to buy a car from ford and go racing

Viggen > pirates-ecu

The Boss 302S and Boss 302R are fully prepped factory built race cars, I didn't miss anything.

In case the four Boss 302s Ford sells are a little murky, it starts with the familiar Boss 302 and two-seat only Boss 302 Laguna Seca street cars, backed by the Boss 302S and Boss 302R race cars for World Challenge and Grand Am racing, respectively.

Really? It has a Vin number and seems to be based off a 2011 GT, if you made it meet emissions, I see no reason why this couldn't be driven on the street.

Not to mention a $23,000 blueprinted motor from Roush/Yates. That isn't included from the factory.
