The 146 NCIC vehicle style codes (VST) — the body-style codes that go on a title or registration.
One of these codes was retired by the NCIC 2000 Code Manual (section 4.3) in 2002 and still appears in the NIEM dataset. A retired code is kept for reference only and must not be written to a title or registration. The manual's instruction for the retired body styles is “replace with appropriate sedan code”, which is why this site codes coupes and hatchbacks by door count instead.
