I was wondering how many factory manual 5L calais were made as I just brought one and can't seem to find any info on how many were made

should be easy enough to tell make the tags plates in the engine bay, the car should say if its a calais, the 6th digit on the start of the Vin should say K, L or X, where it say MODEL No

K= Executive
L=Berlina
X=Calais

then look under TRANS on the same plate to check the option code
should read something like MD8 is Auto, and M78 is manual

got this from another post
