HSV made several "bin bits" cars with left overs added to the last of a run. You could also order a VN clubsport in any colour.
I noticed on the build sheet that it had the tacho option (L2 cluster) from Holden and HSV fitted the L3 cluster.

You cant go by build number as there was no order in the process, you could order No 150 at release if you wanted and it was available. The VN range had heaps of models to choose from and many different parts and as the build time got near the end of the run (VP around the corner) HSV started to use up left over parts as special order cars. So you need to go by serial number and build date to say it's a Bits left over car (not that makes it bad at all) Yours was near the end of the run so I'd say yours is a "bits" left over car
The SV5000 parts were the top of the line options for the Clubsport.

Looks good how ever I would suggest not tinting your tail lights that much. Looks ridiculous and I wouldn't want to be stuck behind you and not being able to see your brakes or indicators.

Better buy some new rotors too, or get some good thinners on there to remove the paint on the contact surface
Otherwise, incredibly neat car. Love the stock look with the strong engine ^_^
