I'm not a numbers guy or anything,
but my brain is having a hard time getting 55 4speeds + 37 autos to = 99 total! It sounds more like 92 to me, but I'll go run it through the 'supercomputer' again. Interestingly, if you add up the qty's of the colors you listed - you get 102!

Marlin, I am not a numbers guy either, and appreciate you being the only guy that responded to my question, and putting the accuracy of the information aside for a second (that I regret I posted after the week went by..), I beleive what was intended in that description is that of the 99 cars, 55 had 4 speeds with certain body/interior attributes (including a subset of 6 with a v roof), 37 had automatics and certain body attributes, and 1 had an automatic with certain different body attributes. That number is actually 93 (not 92) which conveyed transmission and body attributes combined as far as a number, and leaves open the remaining number of cars (99 minus 93 = 6) to be undefined. The first part of that article's statement was based on transmission/body/interior aspects. To me 6 were left as undefined in that area.
No doubt in the that regretable posting, the color totals (which has no transmission or body aspects tied to it) is off by 2 (agree on that).
I sent the editor of that article an email just for my own interests, where he got that information, and will keep that to myself and not corrupt data on this website on this topic.
