Smile ***NEW*** VIN Decoder

We're proud to announce a new feature which allows members to decode their VIN! Along with MSRP and invoice price, the Vin Decoder can be used to see engine and powertrain stats, options by body style, paint colors and codes, and detailed technical specs. Users can also easily share that information to Social Media sites like Facebook and Twitter, or even click through to purchase a Carfax report for that particular car.

The VIN decoder will also appear as a hyperlink anytime a member posts a VIN to enable more accurate info when referencing VINs in sales threads or general conversation. We think the VIN Decoder will be a fun and useful tool for members, so check it out!

Use this link to check out a VIN not posted in a thread.

To check out a link posted in a thread, hover over it and a popup will appear. Click on the link and enjoy the wealth of information provided.

Thanks but I'm just the informant, which I will take credit for.

Internet Brands is responsible for its introduction, and we are the first and so far the only forum that has it.

I don't know how or why it works, but this is the first sign of a problem.

If you can document the errors I'll forward it to the people who installed the program.

I guess it doesn't work on real old cars. I tried it on a 65 plymouth.

I looked up my car because I believe my badging for type s was taken off. Should the results show Type - S in there somewhere? Mine shows it as
2005 Acura TL 4dr Sdn MT
MSRP
$33,100.00

Not sure I follow your question, but there was no Type S in 2005. Type S models for the 3G TL were only produced in 2007 and 2008.
