The 86 ssp car were the only injected 4 eyed cars.

IMO I predict the 07-09 GT 500 cars are going to go down in value for the first ten years like any other car. I also don't believe they will skyrocket to being worth 40 times original sticker price (not in my lifetime anyway). If anyone is paying attention to our wizards in washington and around the world it is clear that a 500 horsepower muscle car is on the short list of extinction unless it gets 30mpg and has a big bank of batterys in the trunk. As for current purchase price if you are a buyer now is an excellent time to take advantage of the market. Many gt 500's out there around 40k and I have seen a few for high 30's. As with any other economic downturn, individuals have to let their toys go to address other needs and while it is bad for some, it's a real good time to buy. Naturally the biggest issue with resale is originality, miles, and condition. When CS passes (not to wish it on him) and the cars spike in value, there will be alot of people saying I should of bought one 20 years ago when they were reasonably priced.

Lastly if anyone finds an 07 or 08 GT 500 hard top color vapor with black stripes let me know. (It has to be 100 percent original with no mods, all paperwork, window sticker, low miles, etc etc.) I am currently looking.

Good points Jim. The value will spike when he passes (and it won't be 20 years from now either). I remember having my oil changed last December at the local Ford dealer when they were loading up a 2009 KR500 for a customer in South Dakota. The customer paid the dealer $135k. As I mentioned earlier, you can not get one in the neighborhood of $75k. That's a $60k drop in 6 months! You are right about now being the time to buy. I'd love to get one, but I am now at my 4 collector car cap (wife imposed), so the only move I can make in the near future is getting the 2010 SHO when my daily driver F-150 lease is up in 3k miles. I could liquidate the 86 SSP, 86 GT convert, 67 t-bird and 67 Kaiser/Jeep M715 (which I doubt would get me close to the $40k total I'd need for a GT500, considering it's a buyers market in today's economy). I have a feeling the annual insurance bill would be more for the GT500 than all four of my vehicles combined too.

My local Ford dealer HAD one for months. Seeing your note, I called them tonight. They recently sold it. :-(

And FYI, Ford first introduced the Vapor color for Mustangs in 2008. That color replaced Tungsten Gray, which was available in 2006 and 2007.

Crap! So my EVOC car wasn't really an EVOC car?? What the hell?? hahaha Is this even really one of the EVOC cars ? What is with the red seats ?

It's the real deal, seller may have meant it's the only EVOC car sold complete.

The jury is still out on whether the red GT seats were installed by the CHP. It's possible, they did put a later model air intake on the '92 car.

THE REST OF THESE POSTS ARE FROM ANOTHER THREAD ABOUT THIS SSP.
BOTH THREADS WERE MERGED TOGETHER TO CONSOLIDATE THE INFORMATION
INTO ONE LOCATION.

I found this gentleman on Bay Area Craigslist and after talking with him, realized that he wanted it to go to a good home, but was only getting offers from drag racers wanting to remove the priceless parts and turn it into a race car. The owner, Jim (and me as well, that's why I'm posting it here!) would really like this rare car to go to a good home and if I had the funds, I'd certainly buy this EVOC training car!
Below is what he had to say. For questions, he can be contacted at: jimacarbuff (at) gmail (dot) com Hope I can help preserve this piece of history.

See Rhino's post in the attached earlier thread...http://www.specialservicemustang.net...highlight=EVOC . I'm pretty sure other threads are out here on this one too, but this one has the back story from Rhino.

12k tops. He will sell it when he starts asking a reasonable price.

I wish this car would sell for a good dollar amount, but it is just a tough economy for selling specialty cars. Thanks for posting the attached picture. I never knew the Unit Number for this car -
