Supposedly 102 Ram4 Birds = Non-TA
Going by oPh posted stats that would be 80 4spd + 22 Auto And 55 Ram4 TA's 46 4spd + 9 Auto That's coming up with 157 cars vs. the 161 count So its getting close somewhere |

January 2023 Kissimmee Mecum had a Ram4 4spd TA bring 400k dollars
Was a very prime specimen. About 100k higher than a similar prime 70 HemiCuda 4spd Hdtp goes for. And higher than prime 69 Yenko Camaro's by 50-100k |

I'll chime in here with the figures I have and see how they match up to everyone elses numbers. I believe these came from Fred Simmonds back in the late '80's.
Total WH ENGINE production = 126. Total XN ENGINE production = 35, for a total of 161. Total WH CAR production = 104. Total XN CAR production = 36, for a total of 140. These numbers would include TA optioned cars. Better yet, the Red one featured here is one of only 11 coupes with M21 built at Van Nuys! BOW DOWN!! And I bet Matt knows how many of those 11 were built as TA's. |

We definitely have some errors.
35 XN engines produced 36 XN cars produced That's 1 car without an engine On some of Fred's counts , the cars shipped to Canada didn't get included. "might" could be a factor in the 140 vs 157 vs 161 The answer so far appears between 85 or 102 or 106 Ram4 Firebirds lol |

A sharp-eyed Firebird fanatic that lives out West snagged this one off of Ebay in 2015 I believe. RAIV automatic that originally sold new in Georgia from what I remember.

Ra iv window sticker
My original window sticker shows no 611 as it was included with the ra iv package. I'd say the dealer that added it to a ra iv car double dipped for a few extra bucks.
