We don't get email notifications about new posts like we used to.
So just have to wait until North catches the new posts.
I don't have access to my old files to compare the other early Canadian car(s)
But North will have them.
The cowl tag for the new Canadian discovery will have the build week on it.
edit - I see you have stated it is 01B , missed that in the title line of the post .
They evidently let some loose to Canada before the Main Release in USA.
There were also some let loose in USA before the Main Release in USA.
The Fremont Buildsheet for Automatic Pattern car has a preference date of Jan 4 ,
but I don't think it was actually started that soon.
We never got an invoice or trim tag for it. So it's mysterious.
All I remember about it was it was sold to a Japanese buyer over 20 years ago , then they wanted to sell it back into the USA around 15 years ago when Japan levied high luxury tax on the ownership.
If you are looking for this new discovery to be the "first" of anything - it "might" could qualify as one of the first ones exported to Canada.
Might mean something to a Canadian collector.
Shipping date is not a value price data point.
Lowest VIN per plant might mean something.
But they didn't always come across the finished line in VIN order.
Lowest Invoice Number overall - is where the biggest overall winner is.
