198888

It is my understanding that the last 6 digits of a VIN is the production number. This VIN is off a web-site in Austin for a v-6 coupe. Are they already past 198,000 Mustangs?! I thought they were trying to build 170,000 units.

Am I confused, or what? :bang:

No, they started with 100001, and not all of them are production cars, the test mules get VINs too.

Mine is 185383 built 3-30-05.

Wow, they built 10875 from 3-30 to 4-5 (Jwede's car). That's impressive!

I got a real kick out of my serial number off of my VIN: 190001. Makes me feel special I guess that's means my car (built in April) is #9000. Cool!

That's odd.. I knew they didn't go in order, but Eleanor was built 2 weeks before that and has a higher vin.

Your's would be the 90,001st built. I read they plan to build 192,000. Not sure how they will reach those numbers, based on what I see by other's vin #'s in this thread?

Freeking Awesome! Only about 700 before yours. Keep low miles and someday I think your car could be worth some real $$$$$$$$$$. Let's say in 10 - 15 years when there are 1,500,000 of the new generation stangs out there (which would be about 500,000 GT's).

Awesome!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Well, in 6 days they built 10875 if one can deduce that from my build date of 3-30 to Jwede's built on 4-5. Let's round up and call it one week. There are 12 weeks left before Job 1 for 2006's so continuing at the same pace they can theoretically produce 130,500 more.

One thing we also have to cnsider is when the cars are serialized, not neccessarily built. That would determine the VIN correct?
