I thought it would be cool if we started a little post on our VIN numbers. Our cars are so rare it would be cool to see who has the #1 car made that year.

I'll start.
I have a 94 turbo touring wagon
last 5 digits to the VIN are.....00011

Out of aproximately 200+ that year, I'd say I'm pretty lucky!

Name Year VIN
Tahiti351 1990 09660
Legacy777 1990 23820
Tahiti350 1990 35632
Bdub 1991 00245
N1446 1991 00710
Tahiti352 1991 03304
kleinkid 1991 09191
JoeWM 1992 03791
Dynamic Entry 1992 06111
Morgie 1992 07316
Tahiti353 1992 11673
Ericem 1993 90234
Magicmike 1994 00011
BSOD2600 1994 00091
Magicmike 1994 00123
Ericem 1994 00375
DerFahrer ? 01276
Eastbaysubaru ? 04190
Ciper ? 39666
Ciper ? 46453

IF ANYONE KNOWS HOW TO DUMP AN EXCEL LIST IN HERE AND HAVE THE COLUMNS LINE UP I'D APPRECIATE A PM. I TRIED "CODE" AND "LIST" TO NO AVAIL.

The serial numbers, I believe, are shared between turbos and non-turbos, so the fact that turbo is rare doesn't mean we're likely to find 00001, since that would be the first Legacy that year.

Mike, you're just really lucky. :)

Well for the two I have written down:

Hum.....I did a search on autotrader.com and looking by vin number only, I saw 2 or 3 turbos that were under the number 200. But I suppose your right. And I do feel lucky

the current white one is 00123, my silver 94 wagon and my white wagon were built 112 cars apart! and they both ended up in my driveway. Thats cool!

My 94 SS is 00375 and my 93 legacy L wagon is 90234.

magicmike · Post by **magicmike** » Tue Jan 27, 2009 12:32 am

i'm starting to think that in 94 they spit all the turbos out first.

ericem · Post by **ericem** » Tue Jan 27, 2009 1:15 am

I think your 100% correct. How many Legacy's were made in total in north america on average anyway? I am thinking over 100,000?

Do N/A build cars and Japanese built cars overlap on sequential numbers? I believe almost all turboes were built in Japan. If the 'low' numbers were allocated to the Japan plant and "high" numbers were allocated to the SIA plant, that would explain why turbos generally have lower numbers.

94 TW - 00091

magicmike · Post by **magicmike** » Tue Jan 27, 2009 7:13 am

this thread was dead for 5 years! what the hell brought this back?

entirelyturbo · Post by **entirelyturbo** » Tue Jan 27, 2009 6:35 pm

Almost 6 years actually.

Good. I'm glad to see someone's using the search function.

magicmike · Post by **magicmike** » Wed Jan 28, 2009 12:27 am

I think I will take all of the numbers thus far and make a little spreadsheet. just to give some accurate numbers for 700 only imported thread thats out there...

Dynamic Entry · Post by **Dynamic Entry** » Fri Jan 30, 2009 9:34 am

mine sucks, 6111 on a 92 SS

Mike, how have you/we found out how many of each model were made in a given year (you site 200 TW in your year)

I think it would be interesting to find out who has the last/closet to last Legacy

who has the highest from a 94?

Cool.

I think you should re-post them sorted by year, then by VIN. Would make it easier to see where everyone stands.
