Default VIN Option decoder

I have searched the forums and cannot find a good decoder. I am picking up a new to me 997S Cab tomorrow and would like to know all the details. Any help would be appreciated.

I did but the decoder differs from what is on the car.

Then most likely the car has aftermarket options installed on it (i.e. Porsche parts, but not installed from the factory). Share the VIN?

Vinanalytics is accessing a Porsche database so another tool most likely would not yield different results for you. I agree with the above that you could have Porsche authentic options added to the vehicle that took place after it was initially sold.

The features don't match, and you have to figure this out yourself?
