Our cars were next to each other on the assembly line. 111/220

#591 for me. Crazy. That's always been my favorite number. I wore number 591 in football, baseball and basketball all through school.

We were made for each other, my 1M and me.

Thanks, Metak and tkbr0wn. This is great!

I updated a copy of the spreadsheet and shared. Metak, if you want to incorporate this into the registry, then please feel free.

Here is the link to the UNOFFCIAL BMW Registry with Production Numbers.

At some point, I will figure out how to remove the repeating numbers in each column, for now, just find your vin and look in the appropriate column to find your number. At the end, it all adds up to 740 and 220 so Metak did a meticulous job with the spreadsheet.

How do we know this is accurate?

I asked myself the same question many times before I posted this. Here is why I finally trusted it.

We know the first US Production VIN is accurate and we know the last US Production VIN is accurate. Metak got a list of all the Canadian VINS and plugged them in. Once he did that and I added the counter, the numbers added up and matched what we were told by BMW (740 US and 220 Canada).

Honestly, I didn't expect this to work, but to my surprise it did. I did see a post about someone claiming that one of the US-PRESS cars was actually a customer car, but in the end, it would just be swapping around one of the first 10 US cars and wouldn't affect anyone's number past that.

At this point I am pretty confident that this is correct and Metak deserves all the credit. All I did was plug in a simple formula in the spreadsheet.
