1997 Ford Mustang GT SVO V8 5-Spd 1 Of 58 Woodward Dream Cruise Only 2,848 Miles

The Woodward Dream Cruise has become one of the most important celebrations of American car culture, and in 1997 Ford Motor Company and ASC created a very special Mustang to commemorate the event. Just 58 SVO Woodward Dream Cruise Edition Mustangs were produced, making them among the rarest special-edition SN95 Mustangs of the era. This example is one of those 58 cars and shows an incredible 2,848 original miles since new, preserving an important piece of modern Mustang and Detroit automotive history.

Built specifically for the 1997 Woodward Dream Cruise, the package began with a Mustang GT and received a distinctive group of ASC and SVO upgrades. The cars were finished in Crystal White with Razor Blue Shelby-style racing stripes and fitted with special commemorative badging, unique exterior details, and a numbered dash plaque identifying the limited-edition car number and date.

Power comes from Ford's 4.6-liter SOHC V8 paired with a five-speed manual transmission and limited-slip differential, giving this Mustang the right drivetrain for an enthusiast-focused special edition. A specially tuned BORLA stainless steel side exhaust system is one of the defining features of the package and gives the car a much more aggressive sound and appearance than a standard Mustang GT.

The Crystal White exterior is set off by the Razor Blue racing stripes, Shelby-style quarter-panel air intakes, chrome hood pins, commemorative Woodward Dream Cruise fender badges, and white powder-coated 17-inch aluminum wheels. The original Goodyear Eagle ZR45 tires are still installed, an impressive preservation detail considering the car's exceptionally low mileage, although they should be replaced before any serious road use due to age.

Inside, the Gray leather cabin is equipped with Preferred Equipment Group 249A and features the Mach 460 premium sound system, AM/FM cassette stereo, compact disc player, air conditioning, power steering, power windows, power door locks, remote keyless entry, cruise control, anti-theft system, and fog lamps. The limited-edition dash plaque remains in place, adding an important identifier and another layer of collector appeal.

The car also benefits from power four-wheel disc brakes, independent front suspension, and Ford's four-link rear suspension, giving it the familiar road manners of a Mustang GT while the ASC/SVO modifications add a far more distinctive personality. This example was sold new at Village Ford in Dearborn, Michigan, making its connection to the Detroit area and the Woodward Dream Cruise even more fitting.

What makes this Mustang especially significant is just how limited production was. With only 58 Woodward Dream Cruise Edition Mustangs produced, this is a car that even many longtime Mustang enthusiasts have never seen in person. The combination of ASC/SVO upgrades, commemorative styling, five-speed manual transmission, and exceptionally low mileage makes this example particularly desirable.

With only 2,848 original miles, rare ASC/SVO equipment, a five-speed manual transmission, original tires, special-edition badging, and direct ties to one of America's most famous automotive events, this 1997 Ford Mustang GT SVO Woodward Dream Cruise Edition is an exceptionally rare modern collectible. It offers serious Mustang provenance, unique styling, and the kind of production rarity that makes it a standout addition to any Ford or performance-car collection.
