Default Help Decoding a VIN

Can someone tell me if this a vert/coupe and whether its auto or manual?

1G1YB3D75K51OO874

I tried to find a VIN decoder, and most of them referred me to the manufacturer or wanted to charge for the info.

Thanks!

The Forum Decoder, available above in the "Tools" menu, says this an invalid VIN.

Vert
A/T
1LT

Once you change the letter-O to the number-0 in the above VIN and enter this in the forum's VIN decoder tool,




you get the following results:




The letter 'B' in the 5th position indicates that it's a 1LT trim w/ automatic transmission
