Franz, I agree that model year is irrelevant. My point was only that S/N 9250 (as shown at Turin in 1980) clearly was not the lowest serial number GT5, and that if S/N 9195 was a GT5, it was possible (although from Mark's info noted above, unlikely) that S/N 9189 could also have been a GT5. Clearly DeTomaso didn't follow too many standards or conventions when producing cars in sequence.
