Who has the last Talon ever made?

[Absit]

So here's the deal, the last 6 of your VIN is your production/serial number. It tells you what number your car was for that year. My car was number 45,128 (October 2007). Who has a Talon, especially an AWD Talon, with a higher last 6 of the VIN?

The goal of this thread is to find who has the last Talon ever made (on 'Tuners).

Edit: According to SpawnedX, only 5% of Talons in '98 were AWD, putting the number at 215.

And, originally, we're trying to find the last eclipse/DSM...

 

[SpawnedX]

5% number is based on AutoZone's system which was suppose to help employees determine which trim the owner most likely had.

163,050 - 4/97 Build Date

I probably have one of the higher mileage Talons out there. Passed 250,000 miles last month.


The last Talon will have a Feb 1998 build date.

How do you have a higher production sequence number than mine but yours was built 6 months earlier?

Edit: Oh, yours is a '97. Oh you! That's not what we're talking about here!

numbers are assigned in blocks but dont always run in order. Its why you can get gaps of missing serial numbers

I guess we'll just have to go off build date then.

 

[1990AWD]

we should also try and find the first dsm ever made

Maybe, could be a good separate thread. Let's stick to just finding the last Talon.

 

[SpawnedX]

It crankwalked and exploded.

 

[Tyeler18]

I've got one of the first 200 talon's ever made. I'll have to check the vin number to be exact when I get home. Not sure what number it was made out of the AWD's but it's one of the first 200 talons in general.

 

[jb2zero0six5]

I'll have to find out what number my '90 is when I get it!

 

[casperfast]

soooo, my vin is 4e3al54f5se185362 so what does that mean? build date april 1995.

 

[jb2zero0six5]

It means your neither first nor last... just another 95.

 

[MY1GDSM]

It crankwalked and exploded.

A '98-'99 split thrust bearing 7-bolt?

 

[Bud92gsx]

How many of the 98 talons were made in the two tone interior?

 

[pneumo]

I think I have one of the first Turbo DSM's. My Laser was built 12/88. The AWD DSM started production in March of 1989.

 

[casperfast]

i was thinking along the lines of the first second gen talon, but i think the build date would be in 94 some time.

 

[jb2zero0six5]

12/88?? Damn, I think your right.

 

[Xeiros]

It's not mine.

 

[MY1GDSM]

what are your serial numbers in the Vin? their wasn't very many DSM made in "88-"89... around 2,500 in '88 IIRC

 

[Dhan]

I've read that the first DSMs were built in '88 and were N/T. Now let me see if I can find the source to that figure.

 

[jb2zero0six5]

Damn, 132493...

 

[3kgt2nv]

my 90 gsx has a march of 89 build date.

 

[Absit]

Clearly a lot of you don't understand the purpose of this thread.
It's to find the last Talon built.
If you don't have a '98, this isn't you, regardless of your production number.
