ZL1 VIN discussion - 2G1FS1EP3C9800004

#69 is Carbon Flash Metallic, it was the car that was Auctioned at the Barrett Jackson Auto Show last year in which Rick Hendrick won. I don't know if it has been produced already or not though.

The charity-winning car will be the 69th Camaro ZL1 assembled at Chevrolet’s Oshawa Assembly Plant, but is the first sold to the general public. Its production number pays homage to the original Camaro ZL1 of 1969 — of which just 69 copies were ever produced.

and without a doubt, he got #1 as well.

Didn't Rick Hendrick pay $250,000 for #69 in Carbon Flash Metallic?

[mmarx82]

Yes that's what were talking about: http://www.barrett-jackson.com/appli...=674.3&aid=424

I would not assume that 69 units have been produced, number 69 was likely built out of sequence.

The car on stage was not the actual car purchased.

OK, I have 3 scenarios (or more )

1. An error in GMs database. (not likely)

2. Maybe Mr. Hendrick decided he didn't like Carbon Flash.

3. Mr. Hendrick car is not vin# C9800069, but given a vin# out of sequence.

Conspiracy theory ?

Edit: or #4, I'm just completely nuts. (very possible )

I know the car that was at the Auction was not the actual car even though when I re-read what I wrote does sound like that's what I was trying to say, it doesn't matter now thou as in another thread someone has #75 which means #69 should be produced at this point regardless.

Agreed, I didn't mean to imply you were wrong, just clarifying the car on stage was not the car purchased.
