Thanks Ala_xfire.
I actually decoded the VIN on several sites and I did the decode manually with the kelp of jalopnik dot com in this artificial;
deadspin-quote-carrot-aligned-w-bgr-2
In the VIN the first 3 letters/numbers are Make/Model: (Digits 1-3) This breaks out the vehicle's make, model, and manufacturer. In my case the VIN is
1C3AN69L74X007275 with the 1 being the country where it was made/assembled. I also confirmed the information on a few sites including;

The first digit in the make code will always be the country of manufacture. There are numerous country codes, but the most common ones are:
- USA: 1, 4 or 5
- Canada: 2
- Mexico: 3
- Japan: J
- Korea: K
- England: S
- Germany: W
- Italy: Z
- Sweden: Y
- Australia: 6
- France: V
- Brazil: 9
I give Jalopnik full credit for this info.
I would encourage everyone to have a look. Might save you from a "lipstick on a
pig" situation.
