It's nice but I've got to be honest in that I don't think I could trade a Boss 302 in on a SHO. Still my 2 newest vehicles are a par of 03 SVT vehicles(my L and Terminator) so I'm sure a Boss 302 would have plenty of features/amenities and creature comforts for me. lol

Car looks GREAT! Still not loving the wheels with the PP......

Send it to Livernois for the "complete" makeover! 12.00's all day LONG. This would make you miss the Boss a little less!

I like the SHO... I had a '90 way back as a daily driver. A year ago I needed to trade my C6 Z06 in for something with at least a back seat for my sons... I thought about selling my beater and my Vette on a SHO. In the end I decided I wanted to keep three cars in my family so the Boss would work. No question if you can find a deal, and they are out there... A SHO in the upper 30s is an awesome option!

Installed livernois 93 octane aggressive tune last night and all I can say is wowowow.

That 60-70 rwhp claim seems low! I guarantee a mid 12 out of this car now. What a sleeper!

Glad you're enjoying it!

I have a customer that went 12.53 at Fontana the other day (quickest tune only time I've heard) and another here in MI that went 12.8 @ 107.9 tune only.

NO, not saying anything bad about Ford but get the Lincoln MKS "EcoBoost" not a SHO

I picked up a '10 SHO 9 months ago and it is, hands down, the best car I have ever driven to date. I hardly drive my 99 GT anymore (until I want to go a little faster that is, but those days are becoming less frequent as I get older unfortunately). It is damn near a perfect 'all around' vehicle (for my family anyway), its very comfortable, quiet, and pretty quick for its near 4400lb size.

Really nice looking car. FORD needs to advertise them more! Damn, it really has nice lines.

Congrats on the new car. I just did the same thing. Traded in my 13 boss on the 13 sho with the PP. I was hesitent at first as I really love the way the boss sounds and looks. But with another kid on the way we needed some more room. I liked my boss but the SHO is just such a nicer car. I couldnt stand the clutch/trans in the boss and hated the way it rode after lowering it. The SHO is smooth and easy to drive on a day to day basis. Trying not to mod it but have been eyeing the Livernois tunes........... Anyone that is looking for an SHO they are doing great deals on them. Most dealers at or below invoice plus the rebates.

Congrats on the car. I'd like to pick up a '13 in a couple years... If I can talk the wife into it! It would probably replace her '10 Edge as a DD.
