Ozzy: thanks for the zen thoughts about being the originator.

Chevy is only expecting 2% of the 2013 Camaro buyers to go for the 1LE. If we look at the VIN numbers coming off the line by date we can get an idea of how many cars are being manufactured in between.

Section 1 - WMI - Work Manufacturer Identifier
2 = where built / Canada
G = Manufacturer / Chevrolet (L = Chevy South Korea)
1 = Make / Chevrolet

Section 2 - VDS - Vehicle Descriptor Section
FT = platform and series (ND for Malibua, WF for Impala, FT = Camaro)
1 = body type (1 = 2 door coupe; 2 = two door; 3 = two-door convertible; 5 = four-door sedan; 6 = hackback; 8 = four-door wagon; 9=four-door station wagon).
E - Restraint system
W - Engine type
9 - Check digit. USe to verify the accuracy of the rest of the VIN and that it hasn't been tampered with.

Section 3 - VIS - Vehicle Identifier Section
D - Model year of vehicle (2013)
9 - Assembly plant where car was made (Oshawa)
167045 - Car's individual serial number

11/14 1LE VINs
2G1 - FT 1EW 1 - D9 - 166827
2G1 - FT 1EW 5 - D9 - 166863
2G1 - FT 1EW 9 - D9 - 167045

11/15 1LE VIN
2G1 - FT 1EW 3 - D9 - 167588

11/16 1LE VINs
2G1 - FT 1EW X - D9 - 167894
2G1 - FT 1EW X - D9 - 168110

11/17 1LE VINs
