How To Translate Vin #
I am buying a 2001 Vert Triple Black and want to check the Vin to see if all #s match and options for the car. Please advise. Thanks, habib

Of equal or more importance is the list of options codes situated inside the glovebox. This gives the exact list of standard and optional features on your vehicle.

Just look inside the glovebox of the Corvette you are thinking of buying, or ask the seller to e-mail you a photo of the label, and you will know exactly how that car was built/equipped

The VIN will not give you the options, but if you take the VIN to a GM dealer, they can run a printout for you that will tell you what the build date, options and warranty service history is.
