2004 996 GT3 RS VIN
I'm looking at a 2004 RHD 6RS with VIN: WP0ZZZ99Z4S6970XX
I couldn't find a 6RS or a normal GT3 last 4-digit of VIN starts with "7".
The car looks genuine but the VIN got me so confused.
Anyone can tell if it's true?

I would have bought it if it's 1xxx. all the vins i saw from the various websites were range from 09xx to 2xxx including RoW and NA 6RS.

I suspect the car's VIN is not correct. Any ideas what VIN a 6RS should have?

Not sure why but the last cars built had "7" in the VIN.

Not that I can show you. There are at least seven cars in Sweden with a 7 VIN though.
If you want proof just go to your friendly dealer and enter the VIN into PET. That will show exactly what car it is.

I agree with 'Anders' about checking the VIN with a Porsche Dealership.
I have seen a couple VINs for LHD 2004 996 GT3 RS and they were ...4 S 6 9 1 x x x
