AW11 is the chassis code. If you're wondering engine however the first gen or mkI all have the 4age Dual OverHead Cam 16 valve the 87-89 were available with a supercharged version known as the 4agze. Chassis code for the mkII was the SW20. The chassis code for the MR Spyder is ZZW30.

I have an MR2 that is missing its aw11....chassis fraud lol

like mr2silvertop said, AW11 is a chassis code.

A indicated the engine family, either a 3A-LU, 4A-GE or 4A-GZE engine.
W means MR2
The first 1 means 1st Generation of the MR2
The second 1 indicates the cars' trim level, in this case it just shows a chassis code. AW15 shows that the car is a supercharged model.

SW20 refers to a second generation MR2, and ZZW30 to a third generation.

Another example; SW22

S indicated the engine family, either a 3S-GE or 3S-GTE.
W means MR2
The first 2 means 2nd Generation of the MR2
The second 2 indicates the cars' trim level, in this case it shows that the car is a turbocharged model, so it has a 3S-GTE.

Um, my vin says AW15, but mine is an 86 non-supercharged.....

Sorry, I meant to write AW16.

mr2silvertop · 10-20-2008, 12:39 PM

AW15 is the sport trim meaning it had the spoiler and lower trim painted to match the body also usually has all of the bells and whistles (pw,pl,etc). Kind of like LX.
