A little confused

[VX-157]

Ok I am a little confused, I own a Radiant Red 157/175 VX. All the 175’s I have seen are marked as 1999. But my import plate shows mine as a 2001. Would this be because it was imported in 2001 and thus plated as such?

My last 4 numbers of my vin is 1858. I tried to search the forums for a link I once saw that shows year production to vin number but I have not located it.

Any help would be great as I want to make sure that I have my beast insured properly

Cheers

I've found too that a lot of the original docs for title, etc don't always follow the vehicle once it passes from it's original intended country elsewhere.

Not sure about JDM, but if your climate control is automatic,ie pick a temp and forget, then its an 01, if not, its pre-01.
