These numbers look a little bit screwy! There were 32,635 cars built with 1 SB package, but 34,356 cars had Heads-Up Display. Does that mean some 1SX and 1SA cars had HUD? What am I missing here?

I think the extra HUDs were in export cars. They're counted separately from the domestic packages.

I'm surprised how many manual transmissions were sold. I thought it would be 75% autos.

I wonder how the new 6 speed auto will change the %?

No, look again, Precision Red is there. Red Jewel was the in-plant name for Monterey Red.
