The Shelby version has bigger motor, supercharger, more horsepower, and a not so tacky paint job.
Yes it's $9k more, but ...

I drove a GT500 this past summer and that car was very impressive. I definitely enjoyed it.

That may be true but, I think the Boss 302 is supposed to be a better balanced car. I think Ford used the BMW M3 as their target when developing the Boss.

302 beat the M3 at Leguna SECA.

It also beat 5 other cars. I believe it was rated as high as 5 out of 11 contestants and has the lowest price tag. This car is stable at 140mph in 5th with 1 more gear to go! Not to say the least that this thing doesn't seem to ever stop pulling. Can't wait to see what the Track Key has to offer. As far as the look of the car, its retro Boss302 and badass!

They are awesome cars but they seem to have an oiling issue and I know of a few that have already lost their engines so it sounds like they need a little more engineering to fix that problem. Has anyone heard if they made changes to the motor yet to take care of the oiling issue?

ya I did I was not impressed yes it fast BUT not that fast There was many cars in the 60s that I have drove that was just way faster than it
I think the chevy and dodge will be knocking on fords doors next year
also have you seen how that oiling system works with the cam to retard it
what a nightmare
Yes there is a big problem with the oil system
