Default RPO codes

Hi,

Im planning on buying a C6 and have been checking out cars for some time now. I try to compare options installed and how important they are to me.

I have now found a pretty good silver colored 2007 C6 with manual transmission. It was delivered with non-transparent roof but someone upgraded it after delivery. Also the wheels are 2008 QG6 which like better. One issue is that the seller claims the car has 3LT option package. It clearly doesn't have that according to the RPO codes. Check out the picture. Still, it does have a lot of interesting options installed. Another thing is that the steering column is tilt and telescopic although codes doesn't say so.

I have also heard about a luxuary package. Does anyone know of that?

Between Z51 and 67U I can't see what the code should read. I guess either 1SA or 1SB i possible. But those codes where only possible on the 2005. Then they where replaced by 2LT and 3LT 2006 to 2007.
http://www.corvsport.com/Corvette/C6..._2005_VIN.html

The car was destined for Europe and ordered as such. It was in fact destined for Italy and today it is Sweden and I'm having a look at it.
I have been told that Corvettes specified for Europe pretty much have every option possible except perhaps for navigation, polished wheels and F55.

Can someone please help me understand what this C6 I'm looking at is? Fake or just a well equipped Corvette with strange RPO codes.

Regards
Dagge

The flash is right where the trim code is normally located so I'd say its a 1LT. It may be different for euro models but I don't know. That emblem looking thing on the front fender isn't factory.

Front fender has the european turn signal repeater on it and the headlight squirters can just barely be seen in the photo also...obviously a euro spec car. I sure wish we could see the code behind the flash. RPO code "EXP" is there too, this means export car. KA1 means heated seats and UV6 means HUD, AAB means memory package, these three imply a 3LT car. The UG1 Homelink transmitter is not there but this is likely because it doesn't work on european garage openers.

It is an indicator, European style.

Inner ones are fog lights only. Outer ones are red rear and brake light and yellow indicator.

Actually, I was referring to the side marker lights.
