my last 6 numbers are 199459... so thats a pretty high number lol

grnlntrn · 09-06-2010, 02:41 PM

My last 6 are 212084 and it is a 2010.

So I'm guessing that it is the 12,084 made. ?

112,084

SGM's in 2010 started around 90k.

Pretty sure yours is 112,084 for 2010. Once they hit 100,000 the 7th digit advances to 2 and 5 digit numbering starts from zero again.

camaroitalia · 09-06-2010, 03:34 PM

is mine 99459 or 199459?

Thanks for the correction. 112,084 and I bought it on May 7, 2010.

That most significant digit was confusing until I read through your post and ketel0ne's post about half a dozen times.

99,454... The one is not part of the sequence. If yours was actually 199K that one would be a 2.

and for those still scratching there heads the cars with VIN's that start with a 0 instead of a 1 or 2 are preproduction or Capture Test Fleet vehicles used to check for possible problems on the line. Some CTF's were sold as used.

I can't imagine a low VIN number mass produced car being worth more 20+ years from now than any other within that build unless it is documented/signed by an iconic figure, has a unique set of (factory) options that were very limited and desirable, and/or the car itself is a celebrity/record holder.

Good examples would be Leno's or Rick Hedrick's Camaro, Official Transformers set cars, maybe the first few ZL550/575s and official Pace Car editions...

These low vin cars have an R6P "special order activity" code attached to them which make them very desirable to some... especially a very low number like the OP is deciding on.

For his sake, I hope I'm wrong... Museum delivered Corvettes don't hold any greater value, I can't see a car with a birth certificate fairing much better...

A Camaro enthusiast may see some value in it 20+ years from now, but doubt a collector will care, numbers matching non-modded car will be what they look for.

A 2012 Z/28 (coupe/convertible), ABM & SGM SSs and a COPO car (if they ever do one...) will be the low numbered cars to pursue.
