Default VIN Check Question

Is there a way to use a car's VIN to check how it was optioned from the factory on Rennlist? I thought I saw this functionality once, but I can't seem to find it now. Thanks guys.

No. This is for a Cayenne Turbo that I am looking at purchasing and the seller doesn't have the original window sticker. So I am just trying to figure out exactly all the options the car has. But if I take a photo of the under hood sticker that has the option codes listed?

Don't need the window sheet/sticker, there is a smaller sticker stuck onto the factory original maintenance manual(at least for 911's) that has the VIN and option codes on it, not sure where the Cayenne's have their 'body' sticker but doubt its underhood like 911's, I'd bet it's in the spare tire area...
Here is the Rennlist decoder, not sure if it will help but worth a shot https://rennlist.com/forums/vindecoder.php

If you do get the sticker with the option codes, go here an you may find most of them...

It might be a little old and not have all the Cayenne stuff, but doesn't hurt to try.

Stickers look like this:
