My original/canceled order went through on 7/21, and its window sticker shows manual even though the VIN is a "J". My second order was produced yesterday. Also shows manual on the sticker but "J" on the VIN.
Thanks!
Hmmmm... this gets more interesting... so My 8th digit is neither a J or a V or a W.... its a "D" . I just looked up the VIN decoder on this site and found nothing for an interpretation of a D! Anyhow, I am not too worried anymore because I did find out that the 5th digit means series and it is a C which correctly reflects a 2LTAuto. If anyone knows what the D means in the 8th position, I would be curious to know. Tried a google search but got nowhere.
