Building VIN's above 6000 already.....

Got my VIN today fresh from dealer and GM and it is
2G1FT1EW9A9106046
For those of you who follow these things this is a 2SS, stick, RS, Inferno, black. They are building in the 6000's already. (Mine is 6046...last 4 of the VIN)

Congrats, mine will probably be a few more months, but hoping for delivery by the end of July.

Do they add an additional number into the VIN once they get to #10,000?

No.

Actually the last 8 digits tell the story of any car

From the VIN above:

A=2010MY

9=Oshawa Car Assembly Plant

1=Placeholder/Startpoint - when a plant builds 2 different kinds of cars they will choose different placeholders for each model. Since no plant can build more than 1,000,000 vehicles total in a model year, using different placeholders gives a easy indication from someone reading a VIN what model of car it is out of that plant. For example if Oshawa built Camaro and Model X on the same line, that placeholder might start with a 5 instead of a 1. Camaros would have VINs 100001 thru 499999 (potentially, that's a lot of cars!) and Model X would have 500001 thru 999999

Last 5 (and eventualy 6 ) digits = sequence numbers (although VINs are not built sequentially online, but it is a rough estimate of total cars made up to that point)

dealer told me yesterday that the car is 80% built and needs some sideline work...something to do with inferno interior. She thinks it will land at her store which is in a small town in eastern ontario in 7-10 days. Here is to hoping....
