You can do a google search for "vin decoder" or "Chevy Corvette vin decoder". Or here is one from the forum. Never used it, but give it a try.

Depends on your model year. GM started including option package in the 2010 VIN.
Coding the option package name into the VIN, beginning with the 2010 MY C6s.

Right up above there ON THIS PAGE ... where it says Tools. There is a VIN Decoder. For decoding the RPO Option Codes (listed on a placard in your glove box) I found that there is no single site which publishes them all. I had to use at least two or three, and there are still about a half dozen I can't find definitions for.
