No, only year.

Ask your dealer to run a DDW, and give you the dispatch date. As I understand, that is the date it left the plant.

It's also on a sticker on the car, if I remember.

Sticker on drivers door lists month and year of build.

the tenth digit is the year

12/30/2004 per DDW.

Damn, this is an old thread.
