Vehicle Identification Number VIN

The VIN will probably start WME unless you have a very old fortwo.
The USA smarts have a different system.
The 6 digits after that tell you what car you have and the body/engine variant.

WME - Smart designation

450.3XX - old style fortwo coupe
450.4XX - old style fortwo cabrio
451.3XX - fortwo coupe Mk2
451.4XX - fortwo cabrio Mk2
452.3XX - Roadster coupe
452.4XX - Roadster (notch back)
453.0XX - Forfour Mk2
453.3XX - Fortwo coupe Mk3
453.4XX - Fortwo cabrio Mk3
454.XXX - Forfour Mk1

Some early cars had an alternate VIN code on the body, such as WME01MC01********
but all of these early codes are matched to a proper style of VIN code.
Very very early VIN codes started TCC but they are few and far between.

The last 8 numbers are unique to your car. Smart should be able to tell you everything
about your car if you give them your VIN. A VIN decode is not something the public can do.

Can The VIN Tell Me Anything Useful?

Depends on what smart you have. There is a site that can cross reference your VIN with
what smart know about your car. It can possibly tell you the following information.

Delivery date,
Car type,
Paint codes,
Engine number,
Transmission number,
Car add-on and specifications.
