I am sure this has been posted before, but I cannot find it, Would my VIN be able to tell me if my car is an LE? it has been repainted badly in original white, has black sail panel trim strips, and what seems to be original black door handles along with an LE spoiler on it. Does any of this mean anything or is there just no way to tell this stuff!!

Well, This is my take on the LE's (and Jeff Bowlsby can step in here any time). The LE's were not produced in a VIN sequence. So, the ONLY way you'll get confirmation/denial as to LE status is to get a Certificate of Authenticity from PCNA.

The fact that your car has a/an LE - type spolier doesn't prove it is an LE. There are hundreds of 914's out there with them.

The black door handles? Not on a LE. I'm not aware of black door handles on any 914.
