The free VIN decoder reads the 17 characters of a model Acura SLX VIN and shows who made the car, which model year it carries and in which country it was manufactured. For the car Acura SLX we list the production years 1996 - 1999, 1 versions in total, the body styles SUV and a power figure of 218 hp. What a VIN shows: the producer, the model year, the country of manufacture and, when it is coded, the plant. The last six characters are just the serial number.
The VIN identifies the car but does not describe its life. Records of accidents, mileage, theft or owners have to be looked up separately from the decoding. A quick test for the model Acura SLX: the 10th character encodes the model year, so it should fit the year the seller states. Also remember that I, O and Q never occur in a genuine VIN.
