Checking Factory Installed Options
Is there a way to check what options were installed in the factory... is there a sticker or something like that somewhere in/on the car?
Also, would you ever buy from carmax? They have the following 996 coupe for sale... 2002 Porsche 911 Carrera 2D Coupe
Exterior Color: Gray Interior Color: Gray Leather
Mileage: 27K
No Haggle Price: $49,998
Blue Book™ Retail Value:
Jan. - Feb. 2006 Edition $54,830
Thx... newbie looking for a '02 Cab or Coupe and learning more and more each day (but still a long way to go to catch up with all of you!)

Under the front hod there is a sticker that will have the chasis, paint code, and ALL the otption codes ordered when new. If that sticker is missing I would be leary (ie, total hood repaint, etc.).
If you can snap a pic or get us the codes we can tell you what options the car was ordered with.
As for the price, I am sure you could get it a bit cheaper than that but I guess not with their "no haggle" bs.

You can also ask a Porsche dealer to print out the vehicle configuration via eDCS thru PCNA and PAG.
Or, you can purchase a COA:

Guys - I have a couple of options codes I haven't been able to decipher. I was able to look up all but 226 and 342. I have the bose stereo, aero kit, and turbo wheels - none of which showed up in the codes. I wouldn't be surprised if the kit was dealer-installed after purchse, but the bose seems more like it would be a factory option.
Can anyone help?

I found this one, but I don't think it has been updated in a while. It does show more than the Rennlist Option Decoder.

Johnny - here is what I found on a "post 1970" list. Some of these descriptions may have been changed or updated to include additional selections. Let me know about the last one, OK?
C02 (as in "C" "zero" "two") = Equipped with catalytic converter
XME = Rear centre console painted body color
XRB = 18 inch sport/classic wheels/tires
696 = AM/FM Radio with CD
750 = ?? I could not find a 750 code.
Is it possible that it could be "Z50"? If so,
Z50 = Seatbelts front and rear in Guards red, Speed yellow or Riviera blue
C02 (as in "C" "zero" "two") = Equipped with catalytic converter

XRB = 18 inch sport/classic wheels/tires
696 = AM/FM Radio with CD
750 = ?? I could not find a 750 code.

Thanks a lot! That really helps. I think it is 750, but I will look again. I do not have Seatbelts front and rear in Guards red, Speed yellow or Riviera blue, so I am thinking it must be something else. I'll let you know when I find it.

Hi Guys,
As long as we are at it....there are there codes I can not find anywhere:
575
615
670
I'd love to be able to track down these last 3. Any help would be appreciated. Could one of them be rain sensing wipers.
