window sticker reprint
 
How do you order a reprint of the original window sticker of your car?

As far as I know, you can't. The best you can do is mock up a reproduction; there are threads on this.

a friend of mine got one for his 944 as a xmas gift one year. I will have to find out from him how they got it for him

I talked to my dealer about this in 2007, and they said no dice. Apparently it is against the law for a manufacturer to reproduce a Monroney label.

While this is certainly possible, it is also the easiest cop-out for a lazy employee to make.

i will let everyone know what I find out. He said it was really a neat gift when it was all framed up and everything

...think it's illegal for a Dealer or employee to do that.

Do a search, there was a guy on here last year or 2 doing that...

kramer747 04-25-2011 01:53 PM

Not quite sure what the "obvious" reasons are for it being illegal. The car is 29 years old! it's not like I am going to attempt to try nad pass it off as new!

Search button is your friend! ;)

No, but someone unscrupulous might fake a window sticker to give a car options it never had originally - "M491" to legitimize an aftermarket widebody Carrera 3.2, for example. You'd have to be a real fool to take a window sticker at face value to support "collector" options, though - one can easily verify these through VIN checks against known production numbers or via Porsche's own COA, in some cases.

Cheers,

I saw that thread. I want a copy of my original though. here is what my friend got that I guess is as close as I'm going to get


Certificate of Authenticity - Owner Services - Porsche Service - Dr. Ing. h.c. F. Porsche AG

89911 04-25-2011 04:15 PM

Read the post about those that have the Certificate including myself. I'm sure its a "must have" to the new Porsche owner. I ordered mine a few months after I got my 89 about 13 years ago. I think back then it was $25? and I was thoroughly unimpressed. It looks like a sheet of typing paper with your cars vin and its options listed. If it was anything like a window sticker I wouldn't of complained. It sits in a pile of stuff in my garage somewhere.

89911 04-25-2011 04:17 PM

I just checked. $110:eek:

kramer747 04-25-2011 05:04 PM

$100 if you're a PCA member. Big deal -a C note. I'd pay $200. I'm ordering one tomorrow.

kramer747 04-25-2011 05:15 PM

Funny -this company is doing it for Chevys, pontiacs and oldsmobiles

Window Sticker Reproductions for Corvette, Chevrolet, Dodge, Oldsmobile, Plymouth, Pontiac, Buick, and Cadilac

When I acquired my 70, I emailed the dealership that delivered the car, Pon Porsche near Amsterdam, Netherlands and included the VIN with a request for any documentation on the car. Within 2 weeks, I received an email saying that they would send me a copy of the original build sheet. The build sheet lists all options, vin, base price, and final price.

the bigger problem is they are usually not accurate, and almost always very incomplete.

After I got mine about a month ago, I got a call telling me to let them know if there were any mistakes/omissions. There was one of each, but I haven't called them yet. I'll try to remember to call tomorrow, and will let you all know results.
