We can't get enough of the Boss Mustang 302 (http://www.autoblog.com/ford/mustang+boss+302/), and it appears Ford Racing can't, either. Mustang Daily reports that Ford (http://www.autoblog.com/ford/) unleashed the newest member of the Boss family at the PRI show in Florida; the Boss 302SX. The Boss 302 concept is called the ultimate track car, and its stats tell the story.

The SX package delivers the updated looks of the 2013 model, and adds a bit more kick under the hood. The overhauled 5.0-liter V8 will reportedly crank out over 500 horsepower due to changes that include the same intake manifold as the 2013 Mustang Cobra Jet (http://www.autoblog.com/2011/12/02/ford-racing-continues-the-mustang-cobra-jet-program-for-2013-wit/).

Mechanical upgrades also include an improved oil cooler, fuel system, adjustable coilover suspension and Ford Racing mufflers. Team Ford also made changes at all four corners with lightweight 18x9.5-inch wheels mated to racing slicks. And of course, Brembo brakes have been added all around and the interior features an FIA-spec six-point roll cage to protect whoever sits in the single Recaro seat behind the wheel.

Keep in mind that the Boss 302SX is just a concept for now, but all we can see is a serious track star that is begging for production.Ford Racing quietly shows off Mustang Boss 302SX (http://www.autoblog.com/2011/12/08/ford-racing-quietly-shows-off-mustang-boss-302sx/) originally appeared on Autoblog (http://www.autoblog.com) on Thu, 08 Dec 2011 13:01:00 EST.

Be great if it actually is created as well as street legal.
