Just went through the 26 pages on rexnet regarding V5 sti coupe register (adm) and virutally all of them are accounted for between the numbers of 002-399.

Thats going off the last 3 digits of the vin...

Better to go off the applied model code on the plate mounted to the passanger side strut tower:

That's mine - the second line is the applied model code GC8HKED = Sti Vi (or P1 if we were in the UK)

Coupe Sti Version 5 has the applied model of GC8F2DD

GM8GKED is part of the vin # and NOT the applied model code (the applied model code is not part of the VIN number)

look at the photo I posted, the part that you have quoted as GM8GKED is GC8KDGY in my vin #.

The applied code is the 7 digits below the vin.

That is all.

No the number I quoted is the applied model (GM8GKED) number :)

Vin number is JF1GM8KD3XG002153 :)

There is no gc8 in the coupe just gm8 :)

Anyway back on topic :)

Are you gonna go check it out and post up about it?

it looks tidy...

It's an sti
