How do I identify Nummi Toyota Corolla and Tacoma models?

Post by vibe-04 »

What Toyota Corolla and Tacoma models are assembled at Nummi and what VIN codes do they start with (1??) ? My employer will subsidize vehicles that are Union made and the Vibe counts so and should the other models.Thanks Andrew

Thanks,My coworker decided on a new Vibe. The Corollas sold here are built in Ontario, not at Nummi, so they are not Union (UAW or CAW) built. So that's 5 Vibe purchases I've influenced.
