Any way of telling the production number of a 40th anniv?
 

Looking at one locally but just wondering if there is a way of finding out the actual production number out of the 1000 made. If anyone has any info, I'd appreciate it alot. I'm going to call the local dealer tomorrow to see if they have any clue (doubtful).

bump, no one knows at all?

vin maybe?

There's gotta be some number on the vin that will tell you, I'd imagine. Just don't know where that is exactly.

my vin is
JM1FE173980216491

here's some other vin numbers i've found from other 40th's being sold at dealerships around
JM1FE173080215990
JM1FE173780216196
JM1FE173680215461
JM1FE173X80215379
JM1FE173480216012
JM1FE173580216584
JM1FE173680215461
JM1FE173880216580
JM1FE173980216605

how many 40th's are they selling? There's a thread that explains all the VIN info, so if you find that thread you might find a difference that separates the 40th editions.

so apparently the last 4 digits tell the story, and i'd assume the numbers are between 5000-7000. i tried to autocheck and carfax alot of random vin's between those 4 last numbers, but alot of them don't come up since they are all brand new untitled cars. it'd probably be easier to figure out possible actual numbers if the first and last vin was known...

only 1000 according to the mazda site
