dale sand Posted June 14, 2011 Share Posted June 14, 2011 Ok, noob question here I just purchased a 2008 SpecB and I noticed the VIN number is etched in to the windshield and the rear windows. Is this normal? the 2006 2.5i my wife is driving does not have the same. Thanks Dale Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jelousz Posted June 14, 2011 Share Posted June 14, 2011 Subaru does not etch the vin on any of their cars. That was done at the point of purchase. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cabin Posted June 14, 2011 Share Posted June 14, 2011 The PO got scammed into it by the dealer they got it from. I had a dealer try to pull that on a previous car, tried to charge a "hidden" $160. Needless to say, it didn't fly with me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dale sand Posted June 14, 2011 Author Share Posted June 14, 2011 Thanks, living in a low theft area must make us unaware of the dealer/insurance added scams. Dale Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
