Ford Mustang Boss 302 - auto on Ukrainian
Ford Mustang - iconic Pony Car segment of car production Ford Motor Company. The original version of 11 233 (1964/65-1973 years.) Was established on the basis of units of family sedan Ford Falcon (creator Lee Iacocca and his team). The first production Mustang rolled out March 9, 1964 as a 1965 model (among collectors about the "Mustang" release until the fall of 1964 used the informal designation "Model 1964 1/2"). 17 aprelyaavtomobil was unveiled in New York, and April 19 - is shown on all three American television networks. Promotion of the car was accompanied by an active advertising campaign.
It was one of the most successful prime minister in the history of the automotive industry. During the first 18 months has sold over one million Mustangs. In the world of a lot of people who can not even think about how to buy a compact two-door car. Some people complain about the appearance, others - on stereotypes about people who drive these cars. Well, Ford has decided to break all the stereotypes of their new Mustang Boss 302.
With a capacity of no problems. 5-liter engine in the Mustang GT, issuing a 412 horsepower - in itself a hit, however, Ford labored hard to squeeze another 44 hp for this car. To reduce the reliability to the maximum and at the same time remain faithful to the hereditary traits of the first Boss, was intended to help the natural absorption.
The new model has an excellent suspension. You will not find any magnetic iron-filled shock absorbers. To be honest, independent rear suspension, too, you will not find. You will find a mechanically adjustable springs and rack, as well as undervalued clearance (11 mm in front and 1 mm at the rear lower than the GT) and a "thick" core stabilizer. Springs offer five different settings, and if you want to change them, will have to reach for a wrench. Of course, you still feel that there is a live rear axle, where runs over a bump in the middle of the turn, but now it will not be so annoying.
If this car and there is something encouraging for those looking for something more "electronic" is the steering. In a rich leather Alcantara wrapped speed-sensitive power with adjustment for weight change modes Comfort, Normal and Sport, you can switch between them with a lever next to the button control lights on the dashboard.
In either mode, the position and 19-inch tires Pirelli P-Zeros perfect answer to all requests for steering. For such a powerful car like Boss, it is quite easy to manage - a six-speed manual transmission works just fine.
If you and that will confuse, it's interior. Although Recaros seats are surprisingly soft and comfortable, and the main controls (steering wheel, pedals and shift lever) does not give cause for complaint, otherwise interior - typically Mustang'ovy, that is - the best in this class, boring cars. In short, it's monotonous interior is not going to compare to other salons cars Ford, not to mention his competitors.
By itself, Boss 302 - a good option to spend the weekend at the track, but if you do not, the producers are willing to offer you a model of Laguna Seca. For a couple of "gold coins» Ford will deliver your car a couple of slick tires, the other front splitter, brake, and a bigger spoiler.
Even a small amount Boss should like mad on the image of the drivers - this year will be created only 4000 cars - 3250 and 750 models of standard editions of Laguna Seca. Price for this kind of exclusivity is also good. Standard Boss starts with $ 40,310, while the Laguna Seca pull out of your pocket even $ 6995. For less you get the same fuel economy as the standard GT (13,84 l/100 km in the city, and 9.05 - on the highway). Yet motorists who gave Boss a chance, will receive that for which pay - more than a good car.
