Eventually I'll be ordering an invoice and build sheet.

Two month gap, just like mine.

I actually would have preferred a May delivery but was happy to take it in April.

Re: Build Date/Sale Date?Post yours



Took delivery June 26th, 1989.

Car was built in May 1989.

I don't remember when I ordered it. April? It was one day before ordering was closed.

The EPA put a "do not ship" hold on it for over a month due to some emission certification issue with my N10s.

Re: Build Date/Sale Date?Post yours

Was Always Curious How It Was Determined Which Factory (Norwood,Van Nuys) Built Factory Ordered Cars. Was It Done By Scheduling,Parts Availability,Etc,You Would Think It Would Be The Factory Closest To The Receiving State.

I see that your 87 Convertible was built on 4/87. Is this a 20th
Anniversary model with a dash map pocket?

My dads 89 RS was ordered late September 1988 and picked up November 23, 1988. The sequence number for this car is 120090. Any idea if this car was built near your 89?
