Now the LS I own's vin is JF1CX3451RK102883. What gets me on that one is the 345 (the 5) what does that mean.
According to the chart in the Subaru SVX Service Manual
the numbers in the 8th VIN position mean:

3: With SRS airbag and passive restraint
5: With SRS airbag (Driver AND Passenger) and manual type seat belt

AGAIN--the Subaru Owners Manual specifically identifies the LE and not just base model. I agree that other places refer to base model but as we all know that is not a true model designation.
