There's no shortage of similarities to be found between Australia and the United States. Both are former British colonies flying red, white and blue flags; both are big masses of land divided into states; both have <em>Top Gear</em> spinoffs and share a common affinity for Crocodile Dundee. We could go on, but the key commonality here is love for muscle cars. More than anything, that's what ties these two countries together from opposite ends of the Earth. <br />
<br />
<a href="http://www.autoblog.com/make/gm">General Motors</a> has capitalized on that shared trait by bringing powerful <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/category/holden">Holdens</a> over to America under <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/make/pontiac">Pontiac</a> badges. Arch-rival <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/make/ford">Ford</a>, meanwhile, has gone the other way, taking a popular American performance badge and slapping it on one of its Australian products.<br />
<br />
The result is the Ford Boss 335 GT. Based on the Falcon sedan, Ford Performance Vehicles (FPV) has given the Boss 335 GT a touch more power than the <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/2010/11/19/2012-mustang-boss-302-priced-at-40-995/">2012 Boss 302 Mustang</a>: the 335's supercharged 5.0-liter DOHC 32-valve V8 pumps out 450 horsepower and 420 lb-ft of torque (compared to the 440hp and 380 lb-ft on the all-motor Boss Mustang). The power's driven to the 19" rear wheels through a six-speed manual and kept in check by oversized, cross-drilled and ventilated Brembo brakes.<br />
<br />
FPV's also made sure the special Falcon got all the requisite striping you'd expect from a Boss, and equipped the interior with everything they bad to throw at it. With the American and Australian dollars close to par, though, the $70,000 sticker price may seem a little steep. UNfortunately, this is an exclusively Aussie product, so if <em>you </em>(i.e. our U.S. readers) want to show 'em who's Boss, you'll have to stick to the Mustang. Dang.<br />
