yup , an unbroken sunroof on a 99 :tongue:

The whole roof thing concerns me, as far as I know it still works in this one, but I don't know wheather or not to test it to see... It seems to me that Ford would do SOMEthing about this... I guess that giving too much credit where not due, but still..... How about the overhead AUX lights those pretty common?

Better yet anyone have any old sales material for model year 99-00 they can post up?

 

[JScullin]

Some indicator was removed after the first year models. I think it was the break wear sensor or having an external light out.

 

[Saleen Cougar]

yep, brake pad sensor, and bulb out

 

[Centori]

Can they be added back ?

 

[Saleen Cougar]

i guess you could.....but why, and it would be really expencive

 

[Centori]

Ahh. I thought it was just a matter of a new module and display unit.... I was thinking that maybe ford let the other things and just deleted others

 

[Saleen Cougar]

no, your brake bads dont have sensors in them, and i have not seen any wires for them

 

[hamill]

my build date is 06/28/1998....I have the pad wear thing and burnt light thing...took ownership of the car 08/29/1998

 

[Centori]

Hmm curious, the pads W sensors are actually less then those without over at FPN, I wonder if the harness plug is there, just taped outta the way somewhere... It needs pads anyways, so if anyone has poked around down there and has seen any such thing....

mine is 4/23/2002 took delivery 9/11/02

 

[Saleen Cougar]

if you have a 99-00 cougar you have pad sensors. 01-02 you dont

I belive the I4 Automatic Cougars are rare. There was only like, what, 500 of them, built?

Pad sensors are 99 only.

As for rare options, I4 ATXs are rare (200 or 500 built), but not desirable. Sunburst Orange and Melina Blue are relatively rare colors that were only available in '99. Zinc Yellow '00 Special Editions are also pretty rare (500 built).

Autumn Orange, not sunburst sunburst gold was a colour that came out some other year, but its pretty rare as well, i've only ever seen one in person...

I knew that sounded wrong when I was typing it, but I couldn't remember the right name. :banghead:

 

[azbobbybooshay10]

How about Ash Gold? I've seen very few Cougs here on the forums with that color. IIRC, Cougar DB only returns 4 cars with that color.

Actually, i think all the Ash Gold's may be in AZ. :rofl: I have one, Jason has one, and the car salesman I got my Coug from had one also.

I just saw one of those orange ones on my lunch today..the irony.

You wanna know what's rare?

Factory-painted silver headlights.

Mirko had two Cougars (bodies were going to be for race cars), both silver frost, both direct from Ford and both with silver-painted headlights.
