Thanks Hawaiian Driver, mine was actually assembled in Stuttgart, Germany but those also are included in the "class", just that mine is NOT. I did further research and determined that the In service or the build date of my particular '05 S is AFTER the qualification cutoff date of 2/21/05. So The class action excluded my vin for no other reason than the date it was placed into service and the original warranty began which was 4/25/05. All of our '05 S IMS are at small risk whether the VIN is included in the "class" or not.

I say just "drive it like you stole it" and enjoy it, and when ready for a clutch, do the IMS and Bearing UPGRADE at that time.

I've already updated my IMS, RMS, Clutch, and Flywheel, but I was just obsessed and just wanted to understand the reason for my vin exclusion. Lol

They are great cars. Enjoy!
