*writes it down - sounds it out loud* "two is auto... 3 is manual, got it "

I said it was a manual way back there because I was going from the one pic and my assumption it was a manual - Im not gonna blame my neighbor for telling me it was manual (because he's reading this). I'll take the abuse for ya Frank

But I am gonna go edit that post...lets pretend it never happened.

Default Euro VIN #

There should be a stamped I.D. plate pop riveted to the nose of the car just above the hood latch receptacle.---presuming it hasn't been fed a tree and had the nose replaced. LOL

Only on some market cars, not all of them. For example Japanise cars do not have it. There is even option code for that sticker which should be present in late MY cars if it was put in at the production line.
