It's your emergency key. It opens the trunk lock above the license plate so you can get in if the battery dies and the electronic door locks fail. It also allows programming new FOB's if needed.

There is a key, located
inside the keyless
access transmitter, that
works the glove box
and can open the
hatch/trunk lid if vehicle
power is lost. See
Hatch/Trunk on page 83
for more information.

Make sure your key will actually open the trunk/hatch:

I keep a spare key in my wallet. Very handy if the fob battery dies or you lock the fob in the car: http://forums.corvetteforum.com/c6-c...ocked-out.html
Under $10 at most places that make car keys. Use key blank B-106 (same as a Saturn).
And congrats on your new C6!
