Vin Decoding?
Here's my VIN--
JM1FD3315P0205845
05845- would this denote which number my car came off the production line? I'm also wondering if my car is really a 93 or could be considered a 92 1/2

It's number 5845 of 93'. If it's a 92 1/2, the serial production number would be a small number. If you trying to figure out if your car is affected by any recall, you can just call Mazda and give them your VIN to find out which ones have been performed already.

cool thx for the help... I'd love to have been the owner of
JM1FD3315P02000001
I wonder how much that car would be worth if it was in mint condition today?

Vin information
What can I tell from looking at my VIN?
A typical RX-7 VIN looks like: JM1FD3311P0200001
In order, the fields are as follows:
"JM1" "World Manufacturer Identifier" for Mazda
"FD" RX-7 series
"33" body style ("33" = coupe)
"1" "Misc ID field" (1993: "1" = US, "2" = Canada.)
(1994: "3" = manual seat belts, 2 airbags)
(1995: "3" = manual seat belts, 2 airbags)
"1" "Check Digit" (used to verify that a VIN is not bogus)
(calculated for each car)
"P" year model code (1993 = "P")
(1994 = "R")
(1995 = "S")
(Q was not used)
"0" assembly plant code ("0" = Hiroshima)
"200001" serial number (1993: started with 200001)
(1994: started with 300001)
(1995: started with 400001)
So, the car in this example would be a 1993 RX-7 coupe to be sold in the US.
This what your looking for ????
