No, dude, digits 12 thru 17 of your VIN are the production sequence/serial number. You read them left to right, not right to left. The only odd thing is that with the Camaro the very first car off the production assembly had 100001 for digits 12 thru 17. Digit 12 was a 1 instead of a 0 I believe to account for all of the Captured Test Fleet vehicles that rolled off of the assembly line before the official start of production.

So, for instance, my VIN (see my sig) has 105017 for digits 12 thru 17, which means my car was the 5,017th car to roll off of the assembly line. It was not the 710,501st to roll off the line...

They aren't reversed... I think he meant that he counted back from the end 6 digits.

I'd love to see this thread stickied. The VIN explanation should be put up there. Where's a reference to reversing the numbers?

It's 1,401

The person who mentioned backwards was referring to figuring out the last six by counting from the END of the VIN up 6 digits -- not stating that you read the #'s backwards....
for example....if your VIN was ABCD123456789 then, counting backwards - the last six are 456789....making that the production number -- not 987654....
