IASHELBYGT Posted August 31, 2013 Report Share Posted August 31, 2013 I'm am close to getting a 2013 grabber blue Boss with recaros, torsen and car cover. It is used, but with very low miles. The current owner says he has all documentation and Boss 302 owners kit. Can somebody give me a list of what was included for new owners. I don't want to miss anything at the time of the sale? I'm so excited!!! Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LuckySnake Posted August 31, 2013 Report Share Posted August 31, 2013 First, good luck with purchase, it's a great car. I bought mine new and took pictures of the locations of every sticker and plastic the car came with, maybe owner has these pix? The paperwork is the same as any Mustang bought new. I would ask if the person selling car if the original window sticker is included and if the new car stickers and plastic protection were saved. When I bought mine, I also asked for the "Certificate of Origin" and a copy of the Dealer Invoice. The window sticker is much bigger than any other new car window sticker that I have seen in the past. Make sure the owners manual has the Boss Supplement Booklet. I would also see if you can have someone pull the service history that documents any customer concerns. Best of Luck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Canfield Posted August 31, 2013 Report Share Posted August 31, 2013 The after purchase 'Owners Kit' is certainly a big plus to have. I've seen some for sale on Ebay. It's a boxed set with the Donald Farr hardback book, Track Attack literature, and numbered key ring (as I recall). These were sent to the original owners after the purchase, with teh first ones not showing up until abotu Dec. '12. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Best of Luck Thanks, The guy has sent me pictures of the Boss Owners Kit and has had the window sticker professionally laminated. I had a dealer friend do an Oasis report and that all looks good. Floor matts still in plastic, car cover never been out of the bag. I'll try to get the other original dealer paperwork if the seller will part with it. It looks like we have agreed on a price and I'll fly to his place in a couple of weeks, do the deal, transfer the title and drive it home. I've got some road wrap to protect the front end for the drive home. Getting excited Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SGT-C0056 Posted September 2, 2013 Report Share Posted September 2, 2013 I purchased mine used, from a dealer, and it did not have the owners kit. If you can get that, it's priceless, as they are unique to the car. Good luck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
twobjshelbys Posted September 2, 2013 Report Share Posted September 2, 2013 low miles can mean 1/4 mile at a time so it doesn't necessarily mean driven by a little old lady Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IASHELBYGT Posted September 2, 2013 Author Report Share Posted September 2, 2013 low miles can mean 1/4 mile at a time so it doesn't necessarily mean driven by a little old lady It could, but I just don't think so in this case. Car has 295 miles on the odometer at last correspondence. I guess I'll find out upon inspection. No money will change hands until I'm satisfied. Any oil change or break in issues driving her back 1,000 miles. I'm sure car still has break in oil in it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi Jeff, I really admired yours when I saw it about 1 1/2 years ago in Eureka Springs. My Boss number is 3103, build date 12/07/2012, so one of the last 500 cars built I believe. It is an awesome machine. I can't believe the differences in the level of sophistication and technology between the SGT and the Boss. I was able to swing it and still keep the SGT, but am going to sell my Legend Lime 06 Coupe. Dave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
