I'm a new Soarer owner today i went down to Supercheap.When i got their i noticed that i had about 3 or 4 foot of fibreglass hanging out of the left exhaust.It looked like i had a long trail of hair hanging out of my exhaust.Also my rego states that my Soarer is a 2001 model it says 2001 on the i.d. tag but then there is another type of i.d. tag which is green and it has 1993 on it.Will these vin no#UZZ310009707 help in anyway of finding out the exact model of my Soarer.

It will be a 1993 model, the 2001 would refer to when the Vehicle was Complied for registration here in Australia :-)

The fibreglass your refering too is probably the internals of the mufflers coming out. Sounds like you may need to replace some of the exhaust system :-)

Your car was manufactured March/April 1993.

The later date is probably when it was complianced in Australia.

The stuffing in your muffler is unravelling. Look inside and you may be able to see where from and possibly bend the metal a tad to stop it.

Apart from that, cut it off as close as you can and use something to poke it back down where it came from. Otherwise it will keep going until it's all gone - if it's one length and you will need a new muffler.

Welcome Robert. You will get all the info you could poke a stick at here. Sometimes you'll get idiots that sabotage your thread with inane humour.
