Those cloth-tops are probably a dealer thing. A lot of shady dealers do things like putting cloth-tops or cheap body-cladding on cars, then charge extra for a "Special Edition Package" or some such.
Ricart, here in Columbus, got busted for selling an "Explorer GT" package as factory, and later on got nailed again for advertising rebadged v6 Mustangs as a "Mustang GS".

You gotta beat my SLE. It'* the only one we've seen with:

ELC
FE2
CCR (works to this day)
Sunroof

Every option the SSEi gets except the HUD.

i saw one other car like that...'92-'95 SLE white with the black top....i think it was on eBay, but i'm not sure....the top actually looked like a vinyl top, the black one here looks like what was said, simulated convertible

im pretty sure that it was never an option, but it is very possible a dealership had it done to make a bit more $

Never Factory. This has been discussed countless times.

It may be a dealer or aftermarket option. (and still looks like **** regardless).

Those pillar badges, judging by the shape, are not 40th badges.

I did believe he said it was an se w/ the sle package, nontheless besides the top it'* a nice car to own.

I know someone (maybe Will or 93SLE) said they were only 400 something 40th SSEi'* I wonder what the SLE SC and SESC'* were?

637 onthe SSEi'*. There are quite a few in the yards so,their numbers are declining. I know of one for sure. The PEM'* I just put on came from a 40th that Ed Morad had

Numbers are in Techinfo. Including for 40th, but this car isn't a 40th.
