RPO Label?
I am going to photograph a C5 Z06 Saturday and send the pics to a Forum member so he can make a buying decision.
I have driven C5s but never owned one. Where is the RPO label at?
I tried the search function here but did not get any hits.
If he likes the looks of the car I will go back when the weather is better here in Michigan and do an on-the-lift inspection and test drive using the check lists that I found here.
You folks in the warmer areas of the country are soooooooooo lucky not to have to put up with this crappy snow!

If the car is a 2001 or newer, the RPO sticker is located on the inside of the glove box door. If the car is older, the sticker is located on the underside of the driver's side rear cargo compartment lid.

Great - thanks! 01 Z, Speedway White with Red guts. Supposed to be hard to find color combo. It's for sale at a Cadillac dealer about 2 hours from me. Our whole area is under a winter storm watch for 2 days so I hope the main roads are clear by Saturday.

I maybe wrong on this, but there were 352 Speedway Whites 2001 Z06's produced RPO 40U with the interior options of Black RPO 19I or Black with Torch Red seat inserts and lower dash and lower door panels RPO 70I. If you interior is all red check the codes in the glove box.
White exterior with the all red interior is of the classic original Corvette look. I had a 77 with that combination and I loved it.

Saginaw. I have to interview in Port Huron at 11 AM Saturday so I can get my new electronic card passport for when I travel in Canada. Then going to the Soaring Eagle in Mt Pleasant so my wife and I can donate some money to the Indian tribe there. Saginaw is right on the way there so I thought I would help the guy out. He's from Houston.

If the car is at a Cadillac dealer, have the dealer run a GM "VSS "report on it. Send that along to the buyer. The "VSS" will show original selling dealer, any warranty work, outstanding recalls and it will confirm factory optional equipment codes.
