the answer to the "7th" coupe was explained a month or so in i believe Autoweek. Basically, a man who was an employee of i believe Ford at the time, wrote and told the magazine that he was instructed by higher up's back then to destroy the last coupe, so he had it mashed, and carried off in bits. The details of this are probably in the Autoweek archives, it wasn't long ago.
Autoweek has also followed the saga of the "salt Coupe", and the guy who bought it got to keep it, i don't think Spectre got to keep it, but he has other problems now anyway. I think this too is in the Autoweek archives.
Autoweek, being a weekly magazine, does a pretty current job of keeping abrest of the "fast breaking" sorts of automotive news items, unlike the rest of the magagzines which have several months production delays.
