From what I understand none of them came with a LSD as standard.  But most of the one's that had the LSD fitted were the cop cars and were orderd with the car when bought.

Here in the uk, no retail spec mv6 had a lsd from new. Only ex police cars did, generally manuals. Even lsd on police cars is rare here.

More cars have them in europe, its more common out there.

Best souce for lsd here is ex police manual.
