Default Where is the options sticker under the hood?

I went up to my uncle's house today to get the options codes off the car. I wanted to write them down and find out exactly what options the car has so I can have it on ebay tomorrow. However, I did not find the sticker with the codes. Can someone please tell me where this sticker is supposed to be?
So far from lookin at it I can tell it has the supple leather option, the traction control, painted center cap crests, seat crests, upgraded stereo with amp, 18" wheels, and Im not sure what else because I cant find the sticker!
Please advise
Thanks
Jeff

No. The sticker should be affixed to the inside of the hood. That pic just shows the sticker before the PDI is done at the dealer.

Uh-oh I was afraid that was going to be it... Its really hard to read is there any other way to find out what options the car has? Besides the sticker and the window sticker?
Thanks,
Jeff

Yes, a copy of this should be affixed to the first page of the maintenance manual.

Nope. Other than the above, you're SOL.

This is a 2004 Boxster 550 special edition at my local dealer.

Ooops. That is why I took this pic.

Why don't you just call up to your uncle's and have somebody read it to you from the maintenance manual? That would save you the trip. If nobody is there, get your butt in that fine piece of germany engineering and drive! 30 minutes? If it was me I would wish that the drive was further.

or, you should be able to read the VIN to a Porsche Dealer, and they can look it up for you.
