Tim, how was #354 determined and what is your vin#...last 4 digits?

good source

My last 4 vin #s 27**. Does any one know the first vin # of the 06 model year? If so, it sould be easy to get a good idea or the number of V's being made vs the standard XLR. Tim

Hopefully some one will be able to assist you with that answer. How do you know your #?

The first XLR-V Vin# is 1835 and they expected average 4.5 cars would be a V , however acording to your numbers, every 2.5 cars would be a V. That seems way too high to me unless they stopped making reg XLRs for some period. The hand built engine is the choke point and I can't see them putting them out at a 2.5 pace.
My Vin#is 2121 and I was told it was approx the 35th, since it took time to ramp up initial production.

There must be a source to get the full listing........

Ford has been utilizing the hand-built engine program for many years now with their SVT products, every motor is hand-signed by the build team. The engines are built sperately though, so I would think that would not slow down the actual assembly. Each SVT product is individually numbered and is accompanied by a certificate. Too bad GM didn't think that far ahead. It would solve the problem of figuring out your build numbers.

Yeah i no but i thought that SVT not going to produce anymore for ford i thought they were done because i was reading motor trend and if anyone of the workers wanted to contine to work for fored they had to take a job that was worst so must of then left and split up.
