Any good VIN decoders out there?

Hello Guys... the last seven vin digits for my car are ****** it is still in production... and have no luck checking it... is there a better decoder that might work?

On BMW's website? Ask for a production number.
I used that the whole way through and only used my VIN on the shipping companies website.

I use bmwvin.com but I tried yours and didn't get anything. Maybe it's too soon.

So online vin decoders only work if the car already left the factory?

Yes found out... Vin decoders will only work around 5 days before production... mine works now and it is 2015 m235i as promised by the dealer. I have full vin and the decoder site checks it out as 2015 by only putting the last seven digits.

Will you post the site you used? I'm supposed to be production completed by 5/6
