Default Help! What do I have?

How can I determine what trans, diff and suspension package is in my car? I bought the car a few months ago, it was completely stock with 22K miles. I have a:

2000 Coupe manufactured in 11/99
6 Speed Trans
It has the active handling and selective ride.

You can get the build sheet from the Corvette museum, I believe using vin #. Look here.

assuming they haven't been changed, the best way is to order a replacement build sheet.

Check the GM tag/label in your glovebox. It should contain all of the OEM factory codes relating to what packages were installed on the car.

Thank You Thank You!! I keep seeing people talk about an A4 trans and MN6 or MM6. Whats the difference? I have both MN6 and MM6 listed on my RPO code list. If I had to guess I would think A4 is for Automatic 4 speed and I am thinking the 1st M is for Manual and the 6 is 6 speed. But what would the middle letter mean?

MSG C5 thank you for telling me where the RPO codes are. I thought I had a light oak interior and now I found out I have Light Gray. Just knowing that makes me like my car more!

A4 is a 4 speed automatic, MN6 is a manual 6 speed, There are 2 types of 6 speeds in a Vette, One for ZO6 cars (Close Ratio I think) and the standard 6 speed.
