Può essere utile fare una verifica con il VIN della propria vettura.
Il documento in inglese è il seguente:
VIN: VEHICLE IDENTIFICATION NUMBER
Since 1980, all Ferraris are equiped with a VIN, a uniform 17-digit Vehicle Identification Number. It was first introduced on US models, as it was required for all cars in the US made after January 1st 1980. Other markets soon followed.
The VIN can be found in several places, but on all models (except the European version of the Enzo and some race versions) it can be seen from the outside: in most cases it's visible on a plate on top of the steering column or at the bottom of the windshield. Depending on the model and the market, the VIN can also be found stamped on a plate or in the chassis in the engine room, or on plates in the doors.
The overview published on this page explains each digit of the VIN. It was made with help from the late Gerald Roush (Ferrari Market Letter) and many other Ferrari-spotters. Certain information is from official documents, but not everything. So, please note that this overview may contain errors and that it isn't complete. Corrections and additions will always be appreciated.
Important remark: starting with model year 2010, the digits 4+5 and 6+7 are reversed!

(a specific calculation, see below)
0 Other markets
The check digit of the VIN appears in the 9th position of US versions (plus some other markets, see above) and provides a way to verify the validity of all of the other characters in positions 1-8 and 10-17. The check digit is calculated by carrying out the following mathematical computation.
(1) Assign to each number in the VIN its actual mathematical value and assign to each letter the value specified in following Table:
A = 1 G = 7 N = 5 V = 5
B = 2 H = 8 P = 7 W = 6
C = 3 J = 1 R = 9 X = 7
D = 4 K = 2 S = 2 Y = 8
E = 5 L = 3 T = 3 Z = 9
F = 6 M = 4 U = 4
(2) Multiply the assigned value for each VIN character in the VIN by the Position weight factor specified in the following Table:
VIN position Weight factor VIN position Weight factor
1st 8 10th 9
2nd 7 11th 8
3rd 6 12th 7
4th 5 13th 6
5th 4 14th 5
6th 3 15th 4
7th 2 16th 3
8th 10 17th 2
9th to be calculated
(3) Add the resulting products and divide this total by 11.
(4) The numerical remainder is the check digit. If the remainder is 10 the letter 'X' shall be used to designate the check digit. The correct numeric remainder, zero through nine (0-9) or the letter 'X' shall appear in the VIN position nine.
10th DIGIT Model Year
The "Model Year" is only used on North America,
Middle East and Latin and Central America versions:

12th - 17th DIGIT Serialnumber
The VIN was introduced near s/n 30xxx. Until s/n 75000 only odd serialnumbers were used. After 75000 both odd and even numbers were used.
The VIN was also used on a small number of (late production) Dino 308 GT4s. Those VINs start with ZDFBB01 and end with even numbers near 15xxx.
