(from page 5 of the 2012 Collection)
Check out this Performance White Mustang GT Kentucky Speedway Pace Car coupe. Only 3 coupes where made. This one has a manual transmission and the 5.0L V8 engine. The owner did some research. This is what he found, "There were 46 cars made by Ford, I believe sequential VIN numbers, with 43 being convertibles and 3 coupes (fastbacks). I own #3 of 46 which is a fastback that was purchased new from Paul Miller Ford Lexington Kentucky. The 43 convertibles were for parade laps only. The 3 fastbacks were actual pace cars with strobe lights and light bar. My car was, according to Officials at Kentucky Speedway, a 'dummy' pace car. It was completely set up as a pace car but never used to pace the race. It was the first fastback that they received and was used in the promotional pictures. I know #1 was a convertible that went to Barrett Jackson. I have #3 in Ohio and I know #4, which is a fastback, was in Indiana. Others I have traced are all over and all are convertibles. I have tried to verify sequential VIN numbers with no success. However I did trace a dozen cars and they all fall within a range of 46 sequential VIN numbers. Since the inaugural race was in July 2011 these Mustangs were early 2012 models."
