I know this may sound like a stupid question, but whats the easiest way to find your vehicle build? As in GSR, SSL, SE, MR.....

Thanks,
Cory

Carfax maybe?

As far as I know, there was never such a thing as GSR in the US except the X models.
As far as I know, 03 Evos never had MR, SE, and SSL (maybe SSL, IDK). All 03 models were pretty much the same to one another and never had ACD or anything of that sort. They were pretty much GSRs.

Edit: SSL isn't a model. It's a package you can get for your MR. Maybe GSR but I'm not 100% sure.

From: somewhere testing various tires, brakes, and suspensions.
Use the VIN decoder, search and read on the models. You can tell by the options the car has.

No, it doesn't work. See my post above. I have a IX SSL and I copied/pasted what the results were.
I think it only will tell you year/make/model/place of manufacture.
