I tried signup last week and had the same problem. I contacted the epc website staff. They were quick to confirm that there's a problem with online registration, and they got me enrolled immediately.

There's also an interesting sticky in the classified that may do the deciphering for you.
Edit - I just tried it.
The good news - it's baked into the system. If you right-click any of the VINs above, it'll take you to the MBWorld VIN decoder. It confirms model and year and MSRP, and includes all the vehicle specs (weight, gearing, etc),
The bad news - it doesn't identify the options. Pretty worthless.

Yeah I gave it a try but the one thing I am worried about, LSD, isn't on there.

I would not buy a vehicle without the Datacard. Dealer salespeople have no idea what they sell.... especially AMG. FYI, for $50 you can get a copy of the original window sticker. I bought them for my C63 and ML63.

Indeed. My dealer didn't mention anything about my car having a limited slip, but I was pretty excited when I ran the VIN and saw that the car had pretty much every option I was looking for.

VIN is invalid. Needs to be 17 digits, you provided one with 16.
