I have lurked around the forums for a couple days, and noticed that some people have listed the build date of their car and/or the # in the series (ie #1001 of 2760). How do I find that info? Can it be determinad via the sequence number in the VIN? Also, i have seen pictures of at least one car with some plates listing the VIN, along with the # in series. Is that a custom plate or can they be purchased somewhere?

Thanks.



Welcome to CEG. It's good to have another Tropic Green CSVT in the mix. Call 1-800-367-3788 with your VIN. They can tell you your build number and build date. The custom engine plate was from a group buy (GB) a few months ago. Unless another GB is started, you can't get one unless you find someone to do it for you.

And I'll tell you before everyone else does: the search feature will be your friend. Try to use it before you ask a question.
