I am sure a the majority of you are aware of this already but it is official from Ford that the priduction run of the Boss 302 is done. Here is a link with a little information on it. Does anyone know what the final production numbers are yet on the 13 models?

It's good for those who have them : ) Hopefully they somewhat hold their value.

Should be 4000 for 13

That sucks balls.

If I could pick any Mustang it would be a new Boss 302.

So all the Boss 302's are out on dealer lots or are they still rolling off the line and out the yards at ford??? curious what the dealers will do here, jack up the prices becuase its stopped production or sell them at MSRP or lower because the new gen of mustangs are going to be hitting the market soon. Just curious thanks.

My educated guesses to answer your questions...

They are still rolling off the line until the 2013 production target is met. As I recall that's about 4,000 units. I don't believe they are there yet.

What dealers do will depend upon the dealer. It wouldn't surprise me to see some dealers attempt to hold the line on pricing more stringently, at least for awhile. But that doesn't mean that MSRP or below won't be available from many dealers.

If a new vehicle sits in any dealer's inventory for too long the dealer's profit margin begins to erode. This is a strong incentive for the dealer to deal.

I think they'll continue to sell at MSRP...no need for dealers to drop below that...

I have been looking for one and most dealers are at MSRP or $1000 under. One has offered their car at $750 over invoice and no one else will touch that. The color is the only thing holding me back from putting it in the garage.

i still want a '12. i am in no hurry. i doubt i can afford one and my race car at the same time and i am much more comfortable on the race track in a race car than i would be doing de in a street car.

when i quit race, whenever that is, i will go find a used 2012 boss. i am sure they wont be hard to find in good shape. for every mod headed track junkie that owns one of these cars there are 10 who barely drive them.
