When I enter it's details into a spare parts supplier's website as a 2002 model then put in the VIN and click save, it comes up as a 2001 model.
I realise here in the US they start calling a car "2008" fairly early in 2007, but how do I know what year to use when ordering parts?
Also how do I find out the month of manufacture? I'm pretty sure it's in the front of my service book but I can't find that at the moment. 
Thanks. |
Look on the upper right of the emissions certification sticker on the driver's side door jamb and it will have the month and year of manufacture. If you post your VIN number on here or find the VIN number decoder site (I don't have the url but Mike Focke's Boxster pages has a link to it) it will give you the year.
