Engine Identificaition?

[MarkOfZero]

I believe, that if a model year (e.g., 2000) comes into the dealer and is sold prior to January 1 of that year, it is licensed as a prior year car (1999). That is, you buy (take ownership and license) a 2000 model year vehicle sometime in 1999.

At least that is the way it seems to work here in CA. Someone please correct me if I am wrong.

For a Boxster, the 10th digit of the VIN determines the Model Year. If it's X, it's a '99. If it's Y, it's a 2000.

Thanks everyone. I'll try and get under the car this weekend and see what I can find out. I didn't see any receipts that would indicate an engine replacement, and I would guess that it's stock. I'll let you know what I find out and report back.

Cheers,
Mike
