Thanks for all the replies guys...
Here's some answers to questions....
I live in Holland, Michigan. For those who don't know the area....It is near GrandRapids.
I am not sure about the spoiler. The people I bought it from were really nice and were the only owners of the car. The bought it with the spoiler so...
Here's the story on the rims....The guy said that Ford called up BBS When they made the SVT contour show car and had them Custom drill this set of wheels, since BBS doesn't offer our bolt pattern. Then somehow this guy who works at tirerack got ahold of them and put them on this car so....I really like the rims too.

Welcome, I'm a newbie too. Did you pick up that car in South Bend? I think I saw it on Auto Trader when I was looking for mine. Here's my new ride. (E0). All stock.  I hope you are as stoked with yours as I am with mine!

I got my car down in Auburn Indiana. I was actually looking at Hondas first, but after I researched the SVT I just had to have one. It's better than I imagined! I have a feeling the Kuhmos won't last long!
Birch Run sounds great, but I don't think I'll be able to make it. I'd sure like to make it 21.

Sorry...I am not sure where Birch Run is? Is that a racing event or just a get together...

Unfortunately, that's wrong.
I had these exact wheels on my SVT before selling them to Dan Beggs (Blorton), who still has them for his Cougar.
FWIW, they were offered by TireRack a long time ago, but were disconntinued.
But, in any case, they're certainly not one-offs.
Nice car!
