Is B4 Carrera White or Carrara White? Or did they have Carrera white to start with then with the 997 they introduced Carrara White?[8|]
Typo on my part. I should have cut & paste. Now corrected. Thanks Rod.
It's odd because some cars got the US paint codes on the CoA and some the ROW ones.
I think it may have been the air-cooled cars that got the ROW codes.
Did anyone with a water cooled car get their proper paint codes?

Got my certificate this morning - no surprises. Colour code is J2V4 - is the V4 bit the cabriolet roof ?
It's an interesting exercise to add up the cost of all the optional equipment when new - makes me thankful that I bought the car when it was a couple of years old and someone else took the big hit !

Mine arrived Saturday signed by Mr. Goss and very pretty it looks too!
No real surprises, maybe the heated seats as thought they were standard, apparently not - whoever had my car before me thanks as you specced it up real nice -
slide/tilt sunroof, sports exhaust, PCM with phone module, BOSE stereo, heated seats, aluminium trim, green shadeband on windscreen, basalt black with black leather and even a rear wiper!!
I forgot - the three spoke steering wheel!

Apparently there have been a few mistakes made with some of these CoAs, I'd wager your heated seats was one of them, that's a costly retrofit!
I have a standard MY03 Coupe Tip and yes my COA shows the US code for Seal Grey (Y1Y1) instead of L6B4 as shown on the VIN Label. Interior is also shown as Black Leather instead of the VIN Label Code AH. The COA confirmed also what I thought - that the car was a UK C16 spec import from Porsche Stockholm - hence the Swedish customer prep docs that came with the other car paperwork. Must have been when the fad was to buy UK spec cars in Europe when they were significantly cheaper than buying them in the UK. Otherwise no surprises and the COA came in about 2 weeks.

Mine came back within a couple of weeks of ordering. Like Richard's, the paint code is X1X1. I have a few questions if anyone is able to help - the 'sport package (manual)' is listed under optional equipment - I know that this included the sports suspension but were 18" turbo alloys also included? Also, my car has hard backed sports seats - were these also part of the 'sports package'? Lastly the 'Selling Porsche Centre' is given as 'Road Range' - any ideas as to what this means? The supplying dealer named in all of the paperwork I have was PC Wilmslow.
As most of you have already said, the certificate is a useful document to have to add to the history although I wouldn't have paid £65 for it! Thanks to Rod for sorting this out.

I think Road Range Ltd had the Porsche franchise, but they are now Mercedes dealers.
My C2 had the sport package, which included M030 suspension, 18" Turbo alloys and Sports Seats. (Mine were heated too.)
