Post 951 built where/by who?

Silly question, but one that has been bugging me for a while.

What factory/location is responsible for building the 951 (86 specifically) and more importantly was it purely built by Porsche?

Robert Lavigne... wow. Not many Lavigne's out there, at least in the states. You must be from Quebec.

Born in Quebec, but currently residing in that evil province called Ontario

Side question. On your VIN, the last four digits are the serial number. Is this a sequence for just the 951 or does it span the entire line. Meaning, if let say my number 1234, am I the 1234th 951, 944 series, or overall porsche made that year. I am guessing based on the fact that it is only 4 digits that it would have to be the 951 as I am sure more that 10000 944s where made in a year. Probably answered my own question, but just need confirmation.

Thanks,
Rob (or Robert for the Quebec people out there)

Just occured to me, is it a requirement for all Lavigne's to own '86 951s. Please tell me that it is not a graphite/burgundy combo or I will be truly scared
