Can someone decode this VIN for me?

Hey Everyone, first post here. Starting to ramp up my effort to find the right car. This one didn't seem too bad.

Car is a 2008 Cayman S, has the Sprt Chrono track timer on the dash, sport button and has what looks like a spring/shock button next to it. Tried to do a VIN decoder, but havent gotten the detailed option list

VIN is WP0AB29808U782386

Thanks!

The Sport button activates Sport Chrono. In addition to being a track timer, it maps the throttle to react 20% faster. The shock button activates PASM from normal shock setting to sport mode.

The build sheet shows this one to have nice options. Sport Chrono, PASM, and sport seats would make this one a nice track car.

I'm really tempted to take a closer and serious look at this car. The used lot got it from an auction but they offer an extended warranty that covers the car for 5 years or 100k miles and I asked if it stops at 100 or is it 100 on top, and he said 100 on top. It already just crossed 100, so I feel like this might be good insurance. At least I wouldn't be paranoid about the IMS issue....

Thoughts, opinions? Anyone want to buy a 08 c350. It's a wonderful daily but it's not a Cayman S
