Time Stamps:
00:00 - Passing "Trial by Dirt" whilst obtaining the EC/EC2 (Exclusive Color and Exclusive Secondary Color) Black Sanchez
04:10 - Showing off the EC/EC2 Sanchez
This Method will work EXACTLY as shown on PS2, Xbox, PC, Mobile, and Definitive Edition since all of these Platforms/Versions allow the Method shown in the Video. However, note that as long as you're NOT playing PS2 Version 1.40, the EC/EC2 Sanchez WILL NOT APPEAR until the FOURTH time through "Trial by Dirt." This means, on your first time through "Trial by Dirt" you should go as SLOW AS POSSIBLE. The second time around, a little faster. The third time around, even faster than the first and second time. On the FOURTH time around, the EC/EC2 Sanchez will finally spawn and you can obtain it. You don't have to pass the Mission any longer since you already did at least once. Just immediately take the EC/EC2 Sanchez back to the Garage if you'd like.
If you're playing the Definitive Edition on Version 1.02 or below, the Sanchez featured in the Mission will be Black as it should be. However, if you're on Version 1.03 or higher, the Sanchez will actually spawn in Traffic Default Colors and APPEAR to not be special. If you were to obtain one of these and allow the Garage to close down on it, you'd see something very bizarre take place. The Traffic Default Colored Sanchez will be some kind of Bright Neon Green or Hot Pink Color! Both Colors would be EC/EC2, but I'd imagine this is some kind of BUG and this is the side effect caused by it! Even if you obtain the EC/EC2 Sanchez on Patch 1.02 and below and have it Black and then update your game to 1.03 and above, the same thing would happen and your EC/EC2 Sanchez will not be Black anymore!
Note that the EARLIEST you can obtain the EC/EC2 Sanchez would be right at the beginning of the game, however, you can also obtain it as late as after 100% and anywhere in between. It's up to you when you see fit to obtain it at which time. I personally obtain it in the very beginning for a Starter Save.
I am recording this Video on PCSX2 Version 1.6.0. Game Version is SLUS-20552 (Version 1.40) of GTA Vice City for PS2.
