Hello,

I bought a 928S 5-speed from 1981 last week. VIN: WPOZZZ92ZBS840702
Could you please decode the VIN for me?
I'm very curious about the options and hoping he is still in his original coulor (looks like gun grey at the moment).

Thanks in advance!

Greetings from Belgium

Not sure about the color (don't have the color/interior options, thought Porsche can tell you if you order a Certificate of Authenticity), but that is a nicely optioned car!

Thanks Rob!

The owner said that the car hasn't a locking differential.
I hope he's wrong but it would be strange that he doesn't know it because he had the car for 10 years and also reconditioned the transmission.

Next week I'll have the car in my garage and I'll try to make some pictures for the forum.

Only 1 way to know for sure that it's (A)- present, and (B) works: Smoky burnout.

Given that it's an 81, it's entirely possible that it has (A) - been removed or (B) - completely worn out.

And you can test it by jacking up the back end and turning one wheel (trans in neutral). If the other wheel turns, it's got it. If not, not.

But the smoky burnout is more fun.
