People collect VIN and option data for various reasons.
1) it puts package car data with a single SPD production into context by comparing VINs to regular production. The data shows when and about how many cars were in a batch.
2) it helps answer the questions of “how many *** are known”, “what is my engine out of”, and “is this an odd combo”? How many T-bar and sun roof cars?
3) some people are insanely curious regarding details of how things were actually done at the factory instead of relying on urban legends, poor prior articles or writing, or guessing.
4) OCD. Some of us can’t stand to have squares in our waffles without syrup. We HAVE to have completeness. Every new VIN helps with that.

Car looks great but the VIN isn't correct. Too many digits are in it.

I bought an interior panel and the taillights from this car for mine. He was great to deal with.
