In all fairness, why should he send you a picture of his VIN. And, if you re-read your previous post, you never asked for a pic of the VIN.

As my 4-year-old would say "Poopy on you"...I didn't go away--and don't have a problem answering questions about the car. I'll try and get you picture of the option sticker and the rear of the car when it's convenient--but right now it's sleeting in CO, so our Box isn't leaving the garage. As for the VIN number, I'd prefer to keep that out of the public domain, if you don't mind.

If Porsche started with 0000 and went up to 1953 is that one too many, 1954 produced?

You are correct. In the first post I asked for a picture of 2 stickers. In the second post I mentioned the VIN.
Both stickers that I asked for have the VIN and I might call in a favor and have it run through the Porsche computer to check the history.
Like I did here.

Like other owners have asked me to do in my 8 years of Boxstering.
Like I know what the code on the option sticker is for a true special edition. Like I know the country codes
Black out the VIN and just sent me the option sticker via PM or a picture on this board. Like this.
Not hard to do.

The sticker shot isn't blurred for security reasons...it's blurred because I'm a terrible photographer!

On the sticker I can see the correct model designation code for the special edition, and the correct paint and interior codes.
I cannot make out the country code. There should be a C followed by 2 digits. Does the black sticker on the drivers door say it meets US specs. Does the rear bumper difuser have painted metal screens. Is the back of the seats painted in body color.

This is a picture of a display car that I saved 3 plus years ago. At first I thought it could be yours because it is also a tiptronic. But this car does not have door speakers.

Might want to put the camera in macro mode (little flower icon) to get a better picture of the sticker.

When people risk their lives, shouldn't it be for something very important?
Well, it better be.
But what is so important about driving faster than anyone else?
Lots of people go through life doing things badly. Racing's important to men who do it well.
When you're racing, it's life. Anything that happens before or after is just waiting.

The story continues
So Car Zero now has a new home in N.C.
Spoke with the original owners, they were lovely people with good stories on the car and seem happy she has found a loving home.
She's now at 11,200 miles and still beautiful.
