Many other agencies ordered them in red at various points....Missouri, North Carolina, Pierce County, Santa Clara County and the DSO 83 Gov cars as examples.

The TX DPS red interiors that I have databased are two from '84 and two from '86. I don't database '87 and later so I don't know about any after '86.

Here is an online link to an Excel file used for the SSP database - http://foxchassis.com/vcldata/SSP/SSP.xlsx

Other than the red interior, the car has a full console with warning center. Not a common SSP option either correct?

Brian, I have not seen a 1986 SSP with a center console yet, but who knows. The car needs to be verified as a SSP first. It could very well have been a civilian coupe that was put into police service.

Interesting, if only the seller knew if the speedometer went to the Certified 140 mph, or the civilian 85 mph. And the possible remote trunk release button, being relocated. Has anyone tried to contact the seller lately?

I talked with the guy in charge of selling this car for some kind of organization he belonged to and I had asked him a lot of questions about the car and he said that he would send me pic's and never did,been about 5 days now

LX coupes were the only model in 1986 that did not have a console as standard equipment.

LX hatchbacks and convertibles did.
GT hatchbacks and convertibles did.
SVO hatchbacks did.

You had to specifically order the optional console in an LX coupe. And I believe it was designated by a "C" on the build sheet on line D, position 38.

Thank you, FoxChassis.
