Where is the build date?

 

Maxx, If this is the car that you are looking at, just have the dealer look at the information sticker on the inside doorsill of the driver's door. The build date will be there next to the other car-specific information.
If the dealership wants the sale, it should be no problem to walk out an look at the car for you if you're not physically there to check it out yourself.

 

On the inside of your driver side door.

 

D'oh! Too slow. :p

 

September, 2003

 

This car was built 09/02/03

It also has the air-bag recall and the MSP04 reflash open.

 

Showoff! :D

 

Sorry G8rboy. I just want to let the person know if they buy it used ( and i assume they are looking to since it was first sold in march) that they get the recalls addressed.

 

I'm just kidding... I always appreciate your inside information.

 

snap, can I get you my vin so you can tell me my car's date?
I always wanted to know when my car was built, since there is no sticker on the door...
dealer also said 'I don't know and I cant help you with that'

 

DUDE you live in GREECE!!

 

ok, ok:o I just cant find the damned date...
I thought someone with 'inside info' can help me, since all 8s are made in same factory...

 

check your PM's

 

On the driver side freestyle door, look for it on the sticker.. gives build date and other errata to include trim and paint codes...

 

This web site will assist with decoding most of the vin number:
