Your car was built in January of 1998 and was registered as a MY99 car based on the VIN Porsche assigned to it. From January to August of 1998, both W & X cars were built along side each other. The X cars were destined for the NA market and the W cars went to the ROW market. Commencing September of 1998 all cars had X in the VIN. There were roughly 2000 W cars built and shipped to ROW customers in 1997 before X production began in January of 1998.
