C 36 / C 43 AMG

A total of 5,226 C 36 AMG vehicles were built.
In the last ten months of production, the C 36 was available with the 5-speed automatic gearbox (722.6).
Only 890 of these were produced.

According to the Mercedes archive, the total production number is 5,221.
I tried to figure out the difference of five.

There are exactly five vehicles that have SA code 994 or 997 (SHOWROOM VEHICLE FOR EXHIBITION):

In the meantime, I have come across other C 36 AMG VINs.
Normally, every C 36 has SA code 957 (AMG engineering package), since the first six numbers
of the VIN are identical to the C 280.

These three vehicles are missing the 957 AMG package, the 772 AMG bodykit, and according to the datacard they are Elegance models:

These four VINs are also missing the 957 AMG package, but they are Sport models:

One vehicle has no SA code at all:

Finally, four VINs without the 772 AMG appearance package:

A total of 3,865 C43 AMG vehicles were built.
Of these, 3,089 were sedans and 776 were estates (T-models).

Some may now say that only 772 were built!
Unfortunately, that is incorrect.

If you don’t believe me, feel free to double-check here:
