I always understood that the "born date" meant the day the car was first started on the line and came to life. (which is now only a few cars fron the end with the C6) Sort of like when your child was born and let out the frist cry.

I think that is what they show in the production system when it shows 3800 (produced). The actual Build date shows later when it has been finalized and invoiced.

Thank you! However I have one question. If the date on the build sheet is the date the car came off the line then what's that date stamped on the drivers door?

I think that the build sheet date is the invoice or completion date for the build. The date on the door might be the same one that shows in the system as 3800 (produced). If it is an older VIN# I cannot look it up because it will have dropped from the production system.

Any date that may be on the build sheet is not the date the car came off the line.

The build sheet is produced before the car starts on the line, and there would be no way of knowing when it will come off. There are times when the line stops, overtime, slowdowns, etc. all of which would affect when the car finally comes off.

The date on the door only has the month and year produced.
