Default VIN Decoder/rare options

Vin decoder, tells you if you have any rare options, saw it on the Callaway forum:

Thanks LGAFF, I find this info very interesting. My 1994 ZR1 comes right up. I found out that it is one of 4 with the exact options that I have and one of 9 with at least as many options.
My 1990 ZR1 is not in the data base. I would have liked to find out more info about the 1990. It said that I should check back later on the 1990 so I will. I have booked marked the page.

Make sure the VIN is typed in correct, I ran Bob HDZs #88 as it has an emissions exemption sticker on the hood. Only thing different from my 90 was that it had RPO option 1AA, no info on that however. 705 had RPO 1AA.

Neat website Lee.

My 1993 Quasar Blue/Black is 1 of 2.

My 1994 Yellow/Grey is 1 of 1.

My 94 is showing up as 1 of 4. I'm a little suspect of the rarity assessment, but if its true I just went from 1 of 448 to 1 of 4. The resale value has gone up 112 times

I am not sure where they are coming up with the drill down info at the end...my 92 showed as a 1 of 2.

Me Too! It's black over gray, one of 16 thousand & Production Date = unknown!....I think the only thing more common is the red with saddle?

Clearly, something is fishy here... My '91 Red/Saddle came up as 1 of 3. And there's some inconsistencies in the data -- look at this bit of data - apparently, not all cars with cognac (saddle) seat belts, came with cognac leather?? Perhaps this is the Cloth seat issue, I guess cloth seats were still available through 92 or 93?

INTERIOR TRIM COLOR
INTERIOR TRIM,LIGHT DRIFTWOOD 1,932
603TRIM COMBINATION- LEATHER,COGNAC (603) 1,851
609SEAT BELT COLOR- COGNAC (609) 1,932

Also, Corvette Action Center's data indicates that over 5,000 Bright Red cars were made in 1991, this database says:

EXTERIOR COLOR,PRIMARY (81U)
EXTERIOR COLOR,PRIMARY,BRIGHT RED (81U)
3,881

They also state that only 2002 ZR-1s were produced in 1991, which I think we all acknowledge is not true.

So I'm not sure I believe it.
