woah, three posts at the same time. two of them saying almost the same thing. I'm just not fast enough for these guys    

Speed typing classes, here I come!!!

OK, so it doesn't bother me. It is kinda funny, though. Then again, it doesn't take much to make me laugh when I'm tired.

Thats the price you pay for being the Kuhm Lauda of Coolness.

I guess being cum laude is free?

it looks like the pic of kerry's plate says 1999 model year and has a manf. date of 4/98. Not sure what it all means, though.

Actually, due to all the knowledge that I have learned, Kerry actually owns a '98 (cheaper insurance!). All vehicles manufactured after the beginning of the fifth month of the year are considered the next year's model. A 5/98 would be considered a '99. I learned this as a motorcycle salesman.

So, I'm curious as to how Kerry's became a '99, except that Suzuki has a history of using up old spools of wire to complete wiring harnesses, irregardless of the color.

But, in my opinion, if the VIN has an 'X' in it denoting a '99, it's a '99.

Also, it is the correct color for that year ('99).
