Default Porsche Window Sticker

Hello,

If you do not have a window sticker for the Porsche you own, is it possible to get a fairly accurate Certificate of Authenticity from Porsche Cars of NA? Thanks.

I am still trying to find out if the information provided to me by a seller is genuine.

Inside, on the underside of the front hood there should be a sticker with all the option codes listed. Should help I would think.

The COA is seldom completely accurate , and will cost you over a hundred bucks to boot , the one I got years ago was really nice for my 944 . It had an embossed Porsche logo and i framed it . The COA for my 911 was a POS . looked like just a photocopy and looked like crap.

COE seem to be hit and miss for options, Mine lists Partial leather when I know my car has FULL leather as listed in the option code and ..well obvious!
as well as other items missing.

It seems the farther we get on in years past when most of our cars were born, the sketchier the info is on the COE's. They used to be cheap and a no-brainer. Now, they get a pretty penny, and the info is questionable all too often.

Even my 2006 stuff was not correctly IDed by Porsche on the COE. I had to essentially tell THEM what to put on it. Good luck on anything back a few years.

Call 1-800-porsche and give them the VIN number off the car. They will give you the color/interior and options that were delivered on the car for FREE!!
