boss the GT and the Shelby all getting a refresh as we're here looking at the 2013 models and you don't need a scorecard to spot them luckily Ford gave you a new face on all these guys they all get kind of a Shelby like mouth now on the front and a piano black strip between the taillights in the back and those taillights are also got some LED technology in them as well but what happens under the hood of the GT is the most interesting story this car which already had a pretty Rorty v8 now gets up to 420 horsepower it's got a different transmission as well that's six-speed Automatic to go with the performance of that engine now goes into a full manual mode you drop it at a particular gear and it stays there all the way up to the redline and the fuel cutoff so if you want to play manual in your automatic you can do it now inside all these Mustangs they've got a revised about 4 inch size LCD between the gauges and among the functions there is something called track apps you can monitor your acceleration your braking and your lateral acceleration in other words you can see exactly how badly you're scaring yourself oh and check this out you can equip these cars now and I'm not kidding with what they call the pony projector I don't see it on this one but apparently it's a walk up light when you burp the keys that's a gutter or puddle light but it shows a pony logo in the light pattern kind of like the bat-signal I don't make this up now among the hotrod Mustangs I've always preferred the boss over the Shelby this is more of a driver's car to my feeling but the thing that was missing was no possibility whatsoever of getting Ford Sync in this car that made no sense the Fiesta have Sync well now that gets fixed for 2013 and this guy will have it too and I've saved the best well at least the most for last the Shelby goes to 650 horse for 2013 six hundred foot-pounds of torque what will you do with that Ford says that 5.8 liter supercharged v8 is now the most powerful production v8 in any car line in America all I say is you're gonna be parachutes because you might leave orbit to earth if you're lucky
