Default The Last 2001 Built?

So my 2001 may have been one of the last If not The Last 2001’s built

First clue was a the 2001 Radiator that I ordered had the wrong fittings

My car had the 2002 style which was clearly original to the car….


Thursday June 21st 2001 days production Started with Serial number 135448

My car is a 2001 SN 135567 so it would be the 119th car built that day


Is there a record of the last Serial number for the date?


Can’t go by the next day as the serial numbers are changed for Friday the 22nd to the 2002’s

Hate to revive an old thread, but i've been wondering about a specific car, and if it could be the last 01 built. the car itself says its the last 01 delivery, at least. were some 01 cars maybe delivered in 02? im not sure how that would work.

Looks like IT’s not the last 2001 built and even if it was does not make it a better car than any other 2001.
