Smile Free Build sheet from Vin#

I use this site and it is free, it works for 1995 and newer Porsche.
Just put in your vin# and your build sheet options are listed along with cost.

435,471 Porsche Vin numbers on record.

Yes, I just tried it and it works great.
Note that the VIN input is case sensitive, and the third digit is a zero, not an O.

Did not work for me when inputting a valid 2014 CS VIN with in-service date of 7/2/2013--"No data available in table" was returned.

The letters I, O and Q are never used in any VIN.

This is very handy. A dealer just sent me a "we think this car will fit your needs" email, but their inventory page had no details I could find on its options. This managed to find the full build information.

(The car doesn't fit our needs, not only is it the wrong colour, we're not sure what we want, but we do know its not a beige interior. It has PASM not sport suspension, no sports chrono, wrong seats and no sport design steering wheel.)

Try this link, putting in your own VIN.

Remember, VINs are all upper case...

Porsche locked it up last time at the main URL.

They will now get wind of this work around and will lock it up soon enough.

Enjoy it while it lasts.

Substitution of the VIN as a parameter in the URL still works. However, has anyone else noticed the interesting results you can get?

For example, here is a car found via Porsche's pre-owned search tool:
http://ucl.porsche.de/ucl/plsql/usa/...&pnr_=1&lnr_=2

If you grab the VIN number and paste it into the VIN lookup tool:
http://admin.porschedealer.com/repor...AA2A85EK171517

You will see the options agree exactly with the used car options listed. But look at the prices.
From the VIN tool: 53,550.00
From the ad: 54,500
And the car has a 1000 miles on it.

Interesting. I found a few cars priced this way.

I just figured out the difference. The options on the VIN lookup cost out to $0.
