Okay, some math.

Mine was built on 9/25, with a VIN# in the low 500's. Yours was built 26 days later with VIN# in the mid 700's. So in 26 days they built roughly 250ish cars. So on average, that's about 10 cars a day, or 70 a week, or 280 a month.

So wow, that's slower than I expected. Perhaps there was a Japanese holiday in there or something? Or a shut down? I mean at that rate, they will only be building about 3500 cars all year. We are getting down close to Porsche & Ferrari sort of numbers.

Hmmmmmmm?

Does everyone else just get a chuckle out of Bonzo trying to figure all this out? It's the only reason I come to this board - just to see what he's up to!

Is it just me or would anyone else not want the first 2012 off the line? No telling if any undetected problems might exist or not. I'd prefer a mid year model any day!

I have found a list of Z vin and have posted it in your " tracking production with a vin " thread, I'm posting it here again because one of the codes conflicts with your theory. My post :
I don't know if I will help your research but here is a list of what supposed to be a Z 370 2012 vin numbers :

JN1AZ4EH1CM560075
JN1AZ4EH2CM560151
JN1AZ4EH3CM560076
JN1AZ4EH4CM560149
JN1AZ4EH5CM560001
JN1AZ4EH5CM560175
JN1AZ4EH5CM560273
JN1AZ4EH6CM560041
JN1AZ4EH6CM560282
JN1AZ4EH6CM560363
JN1AZ4EH6CM564784
JN1AZ4EH7CM560193
JN1AZ4EHXCM560026
JN1AZ4EHXCM560270
JN1AZ4EHXCM560530

Myself, I'm waiting also for white-sport-pack-mt that is scheduled to arrive at the end of December, hopefully it will be 2012 production .

Congrats! I'm not sure how the VIN works, does that mean you have the first 2012 model?

It certainly looks that way to me!!!!! Wow.

So martin, yours arrived on October 26th, and has a VIN# of 0001, which appears to be the VERY first 2012 built by the way. But, can you ask yoru dealer if they can look up the build date?

Thanks!
