is limited slip code in the vin#???

I'm in the market for a c63, and the only two things that is has to be is.....
A. Not black
B. limited slip differential

Is there a way to tell if a car has a limited slip by the vin#, or some other way of easily knowing if a c63 is so equipped from an out-of-town add?

You will need to ask for a copy of the build sheet. It is option code 471.

Sign up for this: http://epc.startekinfo.com/epc/home.jsp It requires a CC number but doesn't charge you. It just makes sure you're a US resident.

Then input the VIN into that program and check the datacard to see if it has the LSD.

It's an MB site so it's safe.
