Default Vin # ?

I am looking at a used C7 and need to use the vin # to check opts. Can someone tell me if there is a site or something to do that.
Thanks

Won't tell you the exact options but will tell you a little info.

Ask the seller to take a pic of the RPO sticker in the back under the carpet where the fuse box is.

Right. All the options are listed on that sticker. It's really the easiest way to check on the details of how the car was configured when it left the factory. You can then look up the RPO codes in the Order Guide, which is linked with a sticky at the top of this forum.
