Can you guys do me a favor and post the production date of your car and the last 5 digits of your VIN? You can round it up to the near 100s or 1000s if you worry about privacy.

sure.

I'm to project Lexus' production rates for the IS. I'm a Toyota shareholder and I'm trying to do a breakdown of their products for an article I'm working on

LOLOLOLOLOLOL!

I hope you know the VIN I gave you is fake..it's the same as the date provided lol. I don't think you're going to find many ppl willing to give you this info. I think as massive and efficient which lexus and modern day technology is, I can't understand why anyone would do manual data analytics...

Mr_VFS1

Woah, we have the same info. That's kinda weird...

I'm not seeing how this info helps in any way.

AdvanSLF

Agreed. And I also don't see the point of why Lexus wants to project an inquiry to see what their production rate is, who cares about production rates, it's the end result that counts--sales! But like I said, again, they should already have this data internally, why ask it from forum members?! Can't help but have the word fraud flashing in my head.

lookup sales numbers by any manufacturer car and month

cool link, though i would have liked to see them breakdown the different IS models, especially with the legacy data.. i mean sure for 2014 it may be hard to keep that up, but 2013 and prior, why not breakdown by different IS models?

and if a website like this can produce/collect production/sales stats, i can't imagine why lexus needs to "head a project" to collect data on the forums.. scam..
