1995 Mustang Special Edition? -
07-10-04, 04:38 PM
I was at a bar the other night and I met a girl who said she also drives a Mustang. I was asking her about her car a little bit and she said it was a 1995 Mustang Coupe Special Edition with a V6. The "Special Edition" threw me off a little bit, I hadn't heard of that before. I went to her house today and sure enough, she's got a V6 Mustang with silver "Special Edition" decals below the fender emblems and I think there was one beneath the Ford emblem in the rear. Does anyone know what's so special about the Special Edition?

Never heard of this...The only special edition in 95, if you consider it special, is the GTS model, but its for a V8.

Nope, more than likely whoever she bought the car from put some type of emblems on the car and told her that she was buying a special edition. Hopefully for her she wasnt stupid enough to pay anything extra because of how rare the car was...LOL

LOL. That makes me laugh. I love seeing the dual exhaust on the V6's - it is a noble upgrade. Really...
Yeah, only special edition I can think of was the Cobra R along with any GTS's that were produced. As well as the Cobra hardtop convertibles, which I so wish I had gotten instead!

And why the heck would you call a stripped down V8 (GTS) a "Special Edition" anyway? Wouldn't make any sense, except for some moronic marketing ploy.

She said her dad bought it for her, so she isn't out any money on it. She didn't seem very knowledgable about cars either, so I doubt she would have noticed the difference if there was such a thing. But I'll fix that...

An old friend of my GF has one, and I've seen another one or two around before. The one my GF's friend had was white with 16-17 inch rims (I just remember them being factory ford wheels, but not stock v6 rims), a moonroof, a mach 460, ect. It had the badges in the described places also.

Over here in NW indiana, we have more civics running around than you can dream about, and then you'll have a sixer ridin along with! Now, on Turbostangs, there's a sixer with like 750+, but I'm pretty sure that these guys don't have that.
I just can't believe how dumb some people can be. Ok, i can understand haveing a couple stickers, like edel., accel, etc., which i have in my one window, but not the GTR deal, or SUPER STREET, or Type R, or putting a fart can on a sixer. Eh, oh well, i guess i'll just have more motivation to get my car finished!!! Oh, wait, it's 9 degrees outside, nevermind.
Finally a new car, a new beginning... that happens to be fairly old....
