The best way, if you still have questions, is to contact SLP and ask for a birth certificate. They'll ask for the VIN and the result will be known right there.

Good luck!
sorry to dig up an old thread, but as you said, some 1996 models were actually build in 1995, which isn't ground breaking news. SO! IF HIS CAR ISN'T DESIGNATED AS A 1996, IT IS NOT AN SS. "so tell me. if that's a fact; am i lying?" (dennis hopper)

and by the way, my brother in law had a 1995 Z M6 that had a single cat. my other brother in law also had a 1995 Z A4 which was a dual cat car.......

Dual cats were used in 1995 on "CA Emissions" A4 cars. A single cat was used on "49-state" A4 cars. There is also an RPO code on the build tag if it was a "CA Emissions" car.

I'm not exactly sure what you mean here. What I was trying to say is that there wasn't an SS model for 1995. They started with the 1996 model year, regardless of when they were made. I guess if the new model year didn't start in the middle of the calendar year it would be easier to follow....

This whole thread is really not important - the OP has not been active on the site since 10/13/09. I guess it really doesn't matter if he thinks its a "95 SS" or not......
