Just for S&Gs, here are a couple of graphs of production numbers- these don't account for about 500 cars not included in the database so they're only accurate to ~1% or so.

Total production, US/Canada vs ROW, 1980-1995:




Breakdown of Automatics vs. 5-speed, in the US+Canada vs. ROW:

Do you still have these Graphs.

Rob, my auto trans '80 appears to be almost option free.
Hi Jim- What's your VIN? I have decoded an '80 for you before but I want to make sure I have the right car. RE: the F92 option package, I don't know what that is. But I'd love to see a picture of your window sticker if you don't mind posting, or you can PM me with it if you prefer.

The sticker suffers from 44 years of handling. Hopefully it is legible for you. My car has an auto trans, partial leather, power seats, no sunroof, rub strips or rear wiper. It is about as stripped as it could be. Strange that the seats and leather dash don't show on the sticker. And then there is the mysterious F92.
Not too computer skilled, hope the sticker shows up.
