Standard equipment build codes, option codes and Exclusive options
Please note: paint and interior color codes are not covered with this research work
Every Porsche leaves the factory with a list of standard and optional equipment. Standard equipment is described by build codes and optional equipment by option codes. The codes are three or four character strings of numbers and letters. Back in the old days, all the codes started with an M and they were called as the M-codes. Nowadays they start with an I. Please note that the sticker in the service book or on the body never includes all the codes related to the car. It is a bit of a mystery why some codes are printed there and some are not.
It is important to understand that the code descriptions depend on the model and the model year. If you see an option code list somewhere that doesn't tell for which model and model year it is, then it is not a quality source for decoding the codes of your Porsche.

Porsche is a well-known name of the manufacturer based in Germany. However, you can buy a car that was produced in India. This worldwide company has a headquarter in the US. So, the residents can buy the cars that were manufactured specifically for this market. How can you choose this very variant of the car? The 4, 5, 6 positions of the code will represent one of the variants such as the USA, etc. that stands for Mexico, Canada, Switzerland, Japan and the USA. And the RoW is for the rest of the world.
The Porsche VIN decoder will help you with finding the information about the country the vehicle was made, its technical specs and the year of manufacture. Porsche VIN numbers serve as identifiers for people who want to buy both a new car and a used one. It sometimes happens that a used car is sold as a brand new vehicle. The difference between the years is not big, but it can be up to one or two years. However, don't mess the model year with the year of manufacture of the car.
The information that you get with the VIN decoder Porsche includes the body type, the transmission, the specs about the engine, the information about the fuel and so on. When you buy a car, you should compare the information you see after decoding with what you see in real life. If you see that the code tells you there's a Cayman model, but you see a Panamera, it's not a good idea to make a purchase. In this case it will be a good idea to ask the vendor a few more questions on this.
Options Decoder
A 17-characters code is a great tool for examining the car and its specs. It's not about the past of the vehicle or the number of its owners before you got it. It's about the state of the car that it had when it was produced. You will know more with the code if compare it with the visual examination. Let's take a close look at where you can find the code and what options it gives you.
- Find the location. The easiest way to find out the code is to ask the owner of the car to give it to you. The second variant is to look at the registration card. Porsche VIN number can be found under the windshield, on a metal plate in the trunk, as well as under the hood, right in the direction of the car's movement in European models, or on the sticker on the driver's door in American models.
- Use a Porsche engine number decoder to find out what's inside the car before you see it with your own cars. For example, you can find out the transmission, the number of seats, if there are airbags for safety and so on. You will compare this information with a real car. Don't hesitate to ask questions to the owner if some details were changed.
- One of the Porsche VIN decoder options is an opportunity to buy only genuine parts that were manufactured in Germany for the US market. The search of the parts becomes much easier and the quality of them is predictable.
Porsche cannot boast of old cars made before all the companies were obliged to use the single standard for identifying their vehicles. Thus, decoding takes only a few seconds or minutes by entering the code into a special field. The older cars have other codes that are shorter and decoding such codes is much more complicated.
