Sorry to burst your bubble but all the GP2s say 1of2000 on the door. If you run the vin you can find out what the real number of the car was. As the sticker on the roof was one number, but it wasn't the same as the actual production number.

good to know, I was just looking on AutoTrader and seen it on there and they were advertising it was the number one I also noticed that it was missing its tags and was curious myself but thanks for the heads up. Still a great car but my r56 does just fine once I get the cold air intake I think I'll could be able to compete with that.

Having the first of a car isn't a great thing IMO anyway. I'd rather have the kinks worked out first. My F56 is one of the first few brought over and I an see the fit and finish is nowhere like the 2016 F55 we have. Lots of things don't fit just right.

Well true but to say you got to at least drive it lol. Here I was thinking I put 6 miles on a #1 car and the sales guy will find out tomorrow what number it really is.
This is my r56 and I like her much more!

My r56 <3
