I was looking at getting an fto inspected interstate, but the guy who has the vehicle doesn't know too much about it, even the year model looks a bit sus to me as it has the pre facelift bumper. I got the vin, hoping it would bring up something : 6T91MPRO7S1JPL009

no luck when you do it on the complete fto vin search

The vins i've seen and can be decoded have the 7 digits after the DE3A/DE2A in the vin e.g.6U9000DE3A0102779

Anyone have any ideas what model it is year made just by looking at the vin? GPX, GR GS??
"6T91MPRO7S1JPL009"

just get them to give you the number that is stamped on to the body (on the firewall) not the one off a plate (that has been rivited to the body)

Yeah, thats the compliance number not the VIN.
