Default Need Vin# Help Please

I am not asking anyone to run a carfax but can someone tell me what type of car this is. The vin# is 1G1YY32G4W5117558. I just want to verify that it is a 98 pace car. Thanks for the help

The "W" in the 10th digit indicates that it's a '98, but I don't think the
VIN will tell you if it's a pace car. If you look inside the glove box door these codes might help identify it as a Pace Car:
RPO Z4Z Pace Car
PA6 Yellow Wheels
95U Purple color code

Thanks for all the help, I asked the seller to send me pics of the RPO codes in the door jam but he hasn't yet. Thanks again to all for the timely responses.
