I've started compiling a list of VINs for 1995 MR2s I come accross various places. I wish I would have done this a long time ago.

I'm trying to determine a valid number of 1995 MR2s that made it to our shores instead of going on pure speculation as has most often been the case.

The last 6 digits of the VIN is a sequential number, but I don't know if there are gaps in the numbers or not. Something interesting that I have noticed is is the 12th digit on the turbo models is always a 1 (so far). One of my theories (and hopes) is the last 4 digits are sequential. With the current range I have now, that would be 558 that came over in 1995. If my last 5 digit theory is incorrect, then with what I have so far, there would be 130 NAs and 494 Turbos, but I don't believe that to be the case. If you know any 1995 MR2 VINs, please let me know. I plan to do the same thing for 94s as well.
