Who has the lowest VIN? - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

stugray · 05-09-2014, 12:11 AM

Mine is a 2013 GBS.

VIN ends in 0102.

Dealer said he did a quick search in the DB and couldnt find a BRZ with a lower VIN.

Anyone else have lower than 102?

cmon! no-one?

Given that there were more than 10k made, you should include the last 5.

having said that, mine is 01034. Picked up June 2012.

My first one was 00254. Didn't pay much attention to the 2014 VIN.

Ok, anyone have lower than 00102?

Some have said that 00100 was the first production number, but the dealer could not find any valid VINs in the SOA DB smaller than 102.

Mine says "brown".

Took mine home May 2012, and my last 5 are 01278.

So I inquired with SOA about my VIN. This was their response:

"We are unable to state how many production 2013 BRZ models were produced prior to your BRZ. Yes, your BRZ was one of the earliest produced for on-road use. But, we cannot state what number your BRZ was. I can also advise that 12,000 2013 BRZ models were produced. The production date of your vehicle was 3/20/2012."

So I sent a slightly-irritated tone email back telling them that is unacceptable.

Anyone on this forum have access to SOA VIN database?
I am guessing that the statement above means:

"We are too busy surfing porn to look this up for you as that might take a couple of extra clicks and ruin my day"

I am positive that they have the information, and have no idea whay they would hesitate to tell me...

I'm 00327. Why is this such a big deal for you? I really don't think these cars will become collectors items. They are too common. Don't think classic muscle car auction stuff, think more like old 240sx or miata. They will be fun cars that'll be driven their entire lives.

BRZ I don't want an early production one due to production problems. It'll be a classic if you keep it fully stock.

So 12000 is that US only or worldwide?
