can someone Check/Verify a VIN for me

I am very excited and about to buy this car and I want to make sure there are no crazy stories with it.

If someone could verify the origins of this car I would appreciate it

VIN1G5FW2173KL237302

I called a buddy to CarFax it and he said it comes up as a V8, it is supposed to be a TTA. I assume this is because they were pulled off the assembly line to made into TTA?

The TTA's were pulled of randomly, all in Van Nuys. PAS done all the modifications, adding the V6 Buick powerpack, and testing.
