Hello guys, first post but have been reading for a couple months now.

Current owner of an S4 but about to pull the trigger on a 2010 C63. The car isn't located at a MB dealer so it makes it a bit tougher to find quality information about it. I was looking to see if I could get some help decoding the VIN. I called two separate MB dealerships for help (they were very helpful) but were unable to print or email me anything and couldn't really give me options on the vehicle clearly (the service department doesn't see things like MSRP sheets, etc.).

So, that brings me to you guys...can anyone help decode the following VIN to see the factory options installed on the car?

Joe,

Thanks so much for this. Interesting it says grey leather, in the pics I see online looks almost White. This is the exact info I needed.

Thanks again!

Ok, time to test you guys here. I was reading the VIN decode that Joe supplied above which shows the P30 package on the 2010 car. That is all fine and dandy but I see on the car I am looking to purchase it has the carbon rear spoiler.

Also, pulling up the Pictures thread I see that crazy1eye listed have a P31 package. He shows a carbon rear on his car.

I guess what I am confused with is I didn't think the P30 came with the option.

Any thoughts other than someone just put it on there?

How do you decode your vin?

bbretzman

I believe he has access to a MB Parts system online.

Here you go.

Yes I do, and anyone can have access. Go to:

http://epc.startekinfo.com/epc/

and sign up for a one year free subscription. Great for VIN decoding and searching for parts. It's a live database so parts are always current.

This should help clarify things a bit:

Great, thanks guys

OK, some say I have the P31 pack & yet it shows P30 on my spec sheet, so which is it? Being Canadian, the pack includes the LSD which in reality we pay for seeing the package is listed at $7800CDN in 2010 vs $5950US + $2000US for the LSD.

Mort

I have a 2010 Canadian C63 and the LSD was not part of the P31 package and I had to order it separately as code 471. I don't think it was added in to the APX Package until 2011. In 2010 APX-AMG PPP (P31) was $6000 and 471-LSD was $2400. You will need to check if your car has option code 471 if you want to know for sure that you have the LSD.

crazy1eye

Ya your right, the 2011 APX package was $7800.CDN

I found a site called car cost Canada which lists the MSRP & all options, it shows 2 packages, APP $4000 which includes the LSD & also APX for $6000. & also the LSD for $2400 like you said, i guess I'll have to dig deeper.

According to my spec sheet Joe posted above, I do not have an LSD, no 471.

*** I stopped by the dealer & talked to the AMG salesman. he showed me on the computer that in '09 the LSD was included in the P30 pack here in Canada, but in '10 it was not. ***

Sorry Ben for hijacking your thread

Hi Joe,

If you are able to do Australian cars, would you please decode my VIN: WDB2093772F234732

Thanks,

Sorry, it apparently only allows datacard viewing for U.S. cars.

hey joe, do you mind checking mine?

WDDGF7HB6AF414268

It's a Canadian car, so hopefully the app works for all NA cars

Thanks!

crazy1eye

Yes it does he did mine above.

Rob63

Hi Joe, could you decode this VIN for me? WDDGF77X69F223068

Does anybody know how to use this tool to get a paint code? It seems to clear out the VIN when I try to find it. THe VIN is 10806712005140 so maybe that has something to do with it (old car). Any help much appreciated!

Joe,

I'd like to check mine too if you don't mind WDDGF7HB6AF401973. I couldn't register for my own account to look it up for some reason.

Thanks!
