US spec SL55

Is there a way to tell from your VIN# whether your SL55 is outfitted for the US market?

After some scrounging on the net I determined that this info is not forthcoming from the vin.

For those interested, the vin is broken down in the following way:

Position 1: Country of Origin (W)=Germany

Position 2-3: Manufacturer (DB)= Mercedes Benz

Position 4-8: Model info: (SK74F)=SL55

Position 9: Check digit

Position 10: Model Year (3)=2003

Position 11: Where Assembled (F)= Where mine was assembled. Don't have the decoder ring for this.

Position 12-17: Production sequence #
