Spec / Build sheet

Just in case anyone is interested - you can get a full spec / build sheet for your pride and joy from https://vinanalytics.com/ just need your VIN number.
Not sure how long this will be available, but just ran mine and came back with a full and detailed list of build options that match perfectly with my car.
Have been looking for something like this for a long time.

Nice find, useful when checking out cars.
 
BTW if you are buying from a Porsche Centre, they can (if can be bothered) print out the car build sheet.

No problem, I had tried the site a couple of years ago, but couldn't get a spec for my car.
Works a treat now - good to have in my car file.
 
I thought the short shifter and Turbo alloys on my car had been later additions, but it turns out they were spec'ed from factory.👌

Hi
It asks for the last five digits of the Vin first which didn't work for me, but when I put the full vin in it found the car.

2014 and 1984 share the VIN year code “E”

Yeah. I have been using this one for almost a year now. In case you are looking for an alternative VIN check, go check out VinPit here. This VIN# checker can be very useful in finding detailed information if you wish to buy a used car. Good luck.

It didn't work for me the first couple of times I tried to use it, but once I had registered with them, it did work. If it hasn't worked for you, try that first.
Compared to what I got from the OPC, it is a nicely formatted print out.

Bit late to the party on this one, but I just tried vinanalytics and they now charge US$8.99 for a report. Not a lot of course, but I wondered if anyone had used this paid-for service and if it was a worthwhile report? 🤔

I paid for it - as mentioned in my post above. It is a nicely formatted report - much better than the  build sheet I got from the OPC.

Does the window stick/build sheet come back in GBP or Dollars?

This is probably an old thread - but was useful to me, when i purchased a used car yesterday.  Accepting its costs $12 - it was useful to verify quickly for me what I thought i was looking and considering buying. Helped me buy in confidence.

thanks for the info - recommend
