I'm getting an error on two of these, I tried working around them by running reports with the auto RPO and that worked for one out of 3 but still have two blanks here

Someone let me know if I missed a color altogether. I'll keep working on years and what not and on more broken down stuff.
This thing is really 1 of 4 automatics in evolution green?

Another update coming to sedans. I learned through a request on an 09 that the Titanium interior RPO code was different in 2009. I'm assuming the black with cashmere RPO was likely different for 09 as well. I have the 09 Titanium RPO via the requester's VIN. If anyone has a black with cashmere interior in an 09 they can send me the VIN of in a PM it would be appreciated. I can see if I can dig that RPO up through an alternate means but that interior is so rare it might be hard to do.

So, totals on those two interiors will go up and a year break down is likely to result for sedans on those interiors too.
 
I found the 2009 Ebony RPO so I can get the Ebony w/cashmere number through subtraction but would still like to have the RPO if anyone with ebony/cashmere can help. Looks like it would be ##I but the numbers don't go in any kind of order as Titanium was 84 and Ebony is 19. One of the base car only interior numbers was 39.
 
If I send you my vin could you tell me what number my silver frost might be?
 
I can tell you how many cars were built like yours, I can look into seeing if it is feasible to tell you that you have xx silver frost car out of 100 but I won't make any guarantees. If they built all 100 sequentially with nothing in between it would be doable. If they did that I would add a tab with all the VINs like I did on the 2015 Coupes. Even if all 100 were built in a window of 300 or so cars I would do that. If the 100 cars were built over the course of a week though it ain't happening. Send me the VIN and I can increment up and down and see what happens.
 
V wagon I’m afraid it’s as you feared, I am 100% positive the numbers are not in sequential order. I know this because of how many I looked at before buying this one, and it also helps my very good friend justE also has a silver frost matte V. If I were to guess, I would say they were produced over a week, or a month mixed in the middle between wagons, sedans, and coupes in every color option. I try to contact Cadillac myself, ended up talking to someone in Malaysia that told me my car was not a limited edition (even though I was looking at Cadillac’s own website stating the contrary), I asked to speak to someone in Detroit and got hung up on. He ended up sending me a letter in the mail stating my car was one of 95 produced in silver frost matte. I will try and include a picture of the letter. My Vin number is 1G6DV1EP2D0154796, good luck and Godspeed, LOL. But really, thanks V wagon for even taken the time.

Respectfully,

I'm not going to rule out making a list of all the silver frost cars like I did for the 2015 Coupes that would then show you where a certain car fell in the order but I'm not going to promise to complete it either. Out of 17 cars I've found 3. If that is a trend that holds up I would have run less cars to find those 100 than I did to find the 500 2015 cars. Overall time would be less because there is less data entry.

I do have a question. Press release I found said silver frost cars were built with Red or Yellow calipers. What color are yours? Your car had no RPO for caliper color. I found a car with red that had an RPO for caliper. Usually cars with no RPO for caliper were either the cars where yellow calipers were tied to the graphite wheels or cars with silver calipers.

The articles are also dated February 15 while your car was built on the 5th. Interesting it appears they were built before announcement.

Weird they told you 95. I show 100 and the announcement said 100. We'll see how many I find if I can get a whole list.
 
11 silver frost cars in I've found no restriction on interior color though I think they all had suede wheel/knob and Recaros. I've found cars with Yellow caliper RPO so I'm assuming silver calipers were possible based on the couple cars with no caliper RPO. Silver frost while I believe required suede was definitely available without wood. No manuals or no sunroof car VINs found yet in those 11.
 
Silver Frost cars didn't have much, if anything locked as far as the other options went. Still all seem to be Recaro and I haven't seen painted silver wheels but everything else seems to have been available as it was on any other car. I've found 22. They aren't spread too far apart usually, one every 5 to 6 is pretty normal but I've gone 15 or so without hitting one once. I haven't found any V coupes built in any other color while Silver Frost was running so far.
 
Thanks V wagon for doing this. I've been wondering the actual production number breakdown. I'm a little surprised the BD manual Vagon numbers are as high as they are but 1 of 113 ain't too shabby. What is the rpo of the black diamond packaged cars, not the color rpo? Thanks
 
V Wagon, Thank you so much for the time spent on this, truly incredible information on the rarity of the V's

After reading through the thread, looks like I have at least a 1 of 18 --> 2014 Phantom Grey Metallic, Manual, with sunroof.
Do you know how many of the 18 had Recaros, alcantara, satin black wheels and yellow calipers, like mine?

Also, I was told that I may have one of the last ones made, as the previous owner said it was special ordered right at the end of the 2014 VWagon production run.
Would be very interested to know if mine could be the last or at least how many more manual wagons were made after my VIN # = 1 G6DV8EP4E-0131773

Thanks.
 
V Wagon is the man!

So far he's been able to tell me that I have 1 of only 25 sedans in Thunder Gray with Light Titanium interior and a manual tranny for the 2009 model year. Because Thunder Gray was discontinued, there are only another 21 sedans with this color combo and tranny from 2010 to 2014. Pretty damn rare! He's also working on breaking it down further with my options.

My 2014 wagon has a production date of 3/14 with the last six of VIN 178582, also PGM 6M but with the solid roof. Not sure when they stopped making the wagons.
 
I can't help but wonder if I would have been happy with Majestic Plum. Every time I read that color I see in my mind some forum member pics that are just SO gorgeous. I had enough balls to go Opulent Blue but not enough to go Plum. But I think they are just beautiful with the light OR dark interior and the yellow or silver calipers

Guess I should have bought two wagons in hindsight...

October 23,2013 build date. That is closer to the start of the 2014 model year than the end of it. I think they might have reopened 2014 orders. They ended up building them to basically the end of the 2014 model year. Saying where a car is sequenced over all is pretty much impossible though. I was putting together a list like that at first like the 2015 coupe tab but to do that list for every V requires going through every single car LGR built. It is possible. But it is incredibly time consuming to the point of not really being possible.

I can get numbers for number of cars built like yours though. When I get back to that you're third in line right now. Maybe I'll have more time mid week to get to some of the car specific requests.
 
On 4/23/2014 a friend at LGR told me that last Wagon went through the body shop yesterday. So, late April is when the last wagon was built. I'm not sure at what stage of being built a car actually shows the build date of.

This is what I got from him on V2 sedan

Built the very last 322 last night... A pearl white V sedan...

The last Coupe was built early 2015 calendar year. For some reason the last 5 2015 coupes were built then while the rest of the 500 2015 coupes, 490 were built in June of 2014 and the remaining 5 were earlier in 2014.

Thanks. So mine is not a "last one", but still pretty rare. Will patiently await the results on the rarity of my options. No hurry, and thanks again. You're providing a great service to this community.
