I've been posting these a couple other places and now that I'm to a place where I'm not running tons of new stuff I cleaned up my spreadsheet, put it on Google Drive, and here it all is.

All three body styles, total numbers, totals by year, number of manuals for all. Breakdown of exterior color with number of manuals for each. Exterior color plus no sunroof with manual breakout for wagons. The number of cars with each interior color. Number with Recaro, number with Suede wheel/shift knob, numbers with wood trim. Lots of info that I've been compiling over the course of some time.

This also has the full 2015 Coupe VIN list tab that I've posted before. I've cleaned up all the other empty tabs that were in that file though.

New link October 2021, Google apparently invalidated the old link, something about a security issue. I dunno.

Again, thank you. I appreciated your work on the other site, and to post it here is nice of you to do. A lot of work, the definitive guide to the Gen ll CTS-V.

I've updated the file in the link above. The link appears to show the updates. There's more interior info for coupes and sedans. Stealth blue 2013's with twilight blue were entirely missing before. I added transmission for each interior color except Saffron. I really tried working that a few different way and it just doesn't work. I'm not sure why. I might try doing it with trans and rear gear ratio RPO or something that is tied to the trans to see if maybe I can back door that trans info somehow but the latest updates to the interior and completely missing stuff is there now.

Global Analysis and Reporting Tool. I'll probably delete that part of the labels at some point when I'm updating things. It was in there originally because there were many more tabs in the workbook. Now that it is cleaned up that part of the label isn't really needed.

The link in the OP will take you to the file with all the updates I just put out. Silver Frost Coupes now have a tab like the 2015 coupes. It seemed like it was going to be easier to do than it was when I started or I wouldn't have done it. I was pretty deep into it by the time I realized it really sucked but all 100 silver Frost cars are accounted for there. Tons of 1 of 1's in that group of cars. Hilariously, a silver frost, manual (13), no sunroof (2) car is not one of one no matter how many more options you look at. The two built are identical.

2009 sedans were missing from the interior color counts due to different RPOs for 2009. That has been corrected. Some other little things.

I think the wagon production numbers may be a little off. From everything I have ever saw, 2014 was the highest production year with over 700 produced. I could be wrong, I have just seen over 700 on multiple web sites. Thanks for all your hard work. Paint color numbers are very interesting. I have a 2014 WDT. Would love to locate a Mocha Steel one, I saw one for sale about a year ago with graphite wheels, red calipers. It was just after I bought mine.

I don't know where that 700 number came from for 2014 but it is certainly not a production number. Total bullshit with no source behind it

I certainly hope your numbers are correct. I got them on another forum and they are also on wikipedia if you believe anything on there. If you are the same V wagon on another forum which I am guessing you are because V wagon on another forum was working on the same list. Your had a post last year that had the 2014 number at 754. You obviously got some information that the 754 was incorrect. Like I said, I certainly hope the lower production number you are showing for 2014 is correct. It would be great news for me. I have been under the assumption 2014 was the highest production year and it sounds like based on your research, it may be one of the lowest. :dance: Funny, it won't let me post the name of another forum, I have to say another forum.

Yeah, I'm the same person. The number have certainly been a work in progress. One system I was getting numbers from shows the year break points wrong. It starts model years in August when they really typically start in July and it goes straight by build month so early builds that are really next model year cars still go counted in the prior model year. According to that system there were no 2015 Coupes because they were built in June, during the time frame it thinks is 2014 model year. What working from that system I started trying to refine its numbers and with enough info from other systems was actually able to come up with correct numbers. Numbers that match the numbers in this sheet. The system these numbers come from use the actual model year though and not build month with improper break points.

That's a lot of why I just started a new thread for this here. I can't say these are official numbers but without an internal source I would claim them as the most accurate numbers that have been put out.

Your work is greatly appreciated. I am extremely happy to hear the 2014 production numbers are much lower than I thought. If I could find a mocha steel 2014 I would be all over that. I couldn't justify buying it after recently buying the one I have. Thanks again.

Nice work.

I had seen some of the production numbers elsewhere in full agreement with your's.

The Black Diamond Edition Coupe numbers also agree with those that I got from compnine.com. They are claimed to be GM's.

It is aggravating, to some of us, that manufacturers allow one to order an identical vehicle after a special edition is no longer available. Then only difference then being the build date and build codes.

Thanks for sharing your work.

As I recall, I know I posted it on ***************, someone here had the first one of one body style of Black Diamond Edition. The first one of one of the other bodies was wrecked.

The funniest thing I've seen conflict with my info, someone got a letter from somewhere in GM saying only 95 Silver Matte coupes were built. But there are definitely 100 as was advertised beforehand. Haha.
