My 991.1 GTS was recently totaled by the insurance company and are trying to assign a ridiculously low value to the car unless I can provide the Build Sheet.

Problem is, the dealer never had it and seemingly cannot track it down, Porsche North America was unable to provide as well.

Since my wrecked car is at the body shop it was towed to, I can't check this out now (but can tomorrow).

Could anyone please tell me if there is a "Build Sheet" sticker which lists a bunch of codes, each code relating to an option (etc.) the car has? I've seen this on other cars.

Also, WHERE would I find this sticker? Can anyone post a pic?

Thank you!

Go the the Vin Analytics website, punch in the VIN and hopefully the build sheet pops up.

Porsche stopped putting stickers on the underside of the bonnet in the 997 series cars, so you won’t find one there.

Have you tried one one of the VIN services like the one mentioned above, or perhaps one from Suncoast Parts?

Thanks for the help, everyone. . I really appreciate it. I tried the suggestions, and still nothing came up.
Can't believe that either the dealer (where I purchased this CPO) or Porsche North America can't provide this.

Does anyone else have any suggestions? Looks like I'm running out of options.

The insurance company can't access this? That seems bizarre.

I bet you are entering the VIN wrong? It's a zero in the beginning not an "O".

PCNA didn't send a certificate of authenticity a couple of months after the purchase of the car? There's valuable info in that regard there. The dealer should be able to pull the spec sheet from their files as well, shouldn't be a big deal.

The VIN appears valid but I can't pull anything up for it, either. The Porsche recall lookup site accepts the VIN and correctly indicates it's a 2016 911 GTS (unlike what's shown above).

I'm very surprised your dealer can't pull this info for you. As was suggested, you could try Suncoast, for $10 they'll email you whatever they can pull: https://www.suncoastparts.com/product/VIN.html
- but it's a long shot if even PCNA isn't able to help. It's almost as if your cars VIN has been scrubbed from their databases (maybe there was a typo made years ago...)

Are you the original owner? If not, can the dealer that sold the car help you by contacting that person on your behalf?

I was able to find the build sheet using the Suncoast Porsche site. Best $10 I've spent in a long time.

Question:

The original owner paid $158,000 (which I know is on the very high side for a GTS). Does anyone know how I can find the original sales price?

Are you asking for the MSRP? That should be on the build sheet. Total loss value should be calculated based on miles driven/120,000 miles x MSRP The 120,000 miles is what is used for lemon law repurchase. Anything less and the insurance company is trying to screw you (which should not be a surprise).
