    How many '03 300A's are there?

    Thanks to Brian, I was noticing that our 300A with sequence number 642395 is number 5343 of 7839. That seems rather late. That made me wonder when the 300B's started.

    The illustrious RoyLPita speculates that the B's started around 655000. Who has the last 300A and the first 300B of '03? I'm curious. Thanks for your time.

    Jon

    Is this a Canadian car or a US car? Can't go by Canadian cars....Canadian 300A = US 300B. Canadian cars weren't made until the US # changed to 300B.

    The change from 300A to 300B took place in early Nov. 2002.

    But we do have traction control in our 300A's though...which makes it different from the US 300B's.

    Wow, thats the best of both worlds, my only regret is that my 03 has no T/C (heh, that rhymes). Looks like I should have looked across the border for my MM

    Nope. US 2003 300Bs all have traction control. CA 2003 300As ran side by side with the US 300Bs. They did not make any Canadian cars when they were making the US 2003 300As.

    Again: Canadian 300A = US 300B in 2003

    Wow. The US 300A's must have been built early in 2002. I have a build date of Oct 2002.
