Looking to get into an 87 slant. I have a little dilemma because there is 2 serial numbers on car. One inside the trunk under carpet wp0zzz93zhs070098 another inside driver door WP0EB093XHS070098 that says Replacement identification number. Car has certificate of authenticity with the first vin. Any help would be appreciated

So the VIN on the drivers side sticker in the door jam is different from that on the chassis under the trunk carpet above the spare?

Any more history or details on the car. Perhaps a pic or two of both locations....

ya kilodawg exactly yryin to post pictures but not great at computers theres no history on car besides being registered in quebec in 2004 and still here.know the owner and he says car was built for the us but shipped immediately to germany thats why different vins.seems strange to me.il keep trying to post pictures

called 1800porsche and they dont recognise vin on chassis which is wpozzz93zhs070098 but have the 2nd vin in database as 87 turbo cab no mention of slantnose

89SLANT

Do a search, pretty common. My 86 and 89 have the same issue with the vins. Porsche made the bodies then destined some of the cars for the US requiring the change in vin prefix. Last numbers are always the same, if they are different then you have a problem. Got a picture of the option code sticker?

Ah yes I was tired and didn't actually read the numbers. 89slant story is one I've heard before.
