Build sheet from VIN

This might be old news but Suncoast Parts has a VIN decoder service that gives you the build sheet info. This is useful if you are unable to look at the "kardex" or sticker inside the hood (for instance if you're trawling through online ads.) Unfortunately it costs $10 (choose $0 for shipping when you checkout), but if there is a particular VIN that you're interested in, it might be worth it. Here's an example of the data that you get (I've asterisked out some identifying information):
You can then use an option code decoder like Kindel or Stuttcars. If you just plug in the first set of M numbers (with the English descriptions) the decoders do not recognize option packages like P15. I found the Motortrend 2002 Porsche 911 Packages and Options to be useful in this regard. You should use the correct one for your year since they can change.
Hope this is useful for others.

Very cool link... Worked for my car! Though the total price on the the 'print' option and the build sheet is slightly out of sync..
