Assuming the American (i.e. USA) build numbers provided by Nissan N.A. are correct and VINs are sequential, then non-USA 40THs or even non-40THs were built amongst the USA 40THs.

Build #3 VIN is 1629. Build #971 VIN is 2721.

The difference in build numbers is 968. The difference in VINs is 1092.

Therefore, they don't match up and 124 additional (i.e. non-USA 40THs) cars were built during this time.

I suspect these were 40THs for Canada and Mexico.

For sure there were 1,000 built for the US and 120 built for Canada and who knows how many for Mexico and who knows how many Quartz 40THs for Europe and the rest of the world.

Therefore, separate build numbers for USA and Canada, Mexico, Europe, etc.

The only way to get your build number is to call Nissan and ask.

Just just called NISSAN N.A., spoke with 2 people and they were very helpful and professional. They collected my information, Full Name, Address, Phone#, email, VIN, Mileage, New/Pre-Owned, and then... finally gave me the "Manufacturing Date" which is January of 18th, 2010.

Justin (ext. 458165) from Consumer Affairs will call me back in a few days for the Build Number. He even gave me a "Case Number" just in case I need to call NISSAN N.A. in the future for this case.

Can you get your build date in the states?


djpathfinder 10-03-2011 07:04 PM

Interesting that my VIN number is four lower than yours (BeemaaZ) but your build date is one day earlier than mine.

BeemaaZ 10-03-2011 08:37 PM

When Justin or Consumer Affairs call me with the Build Number, I will re-confirm the Manuf. Date and let you know. :tiphat:

Edit:
Build # 472
Manuf. date (confirmed) 1/18/2010

I think the 1000 units we are referring to was only for the states. The 120 was Canadian and then Europe had 370 40th anniversary units made(which were numbered and plaqued) so there alone that is 1490 40th AE units! Plus what ever they got in Asia and the middle east........

I also find the build date thing weird to. I think before I was reading other build dates that seemed wrong. I'll look into this more when intalk to the rep next.

I got mine after a few calls. Vin 2600 was build No 867 on 2/5/10.

Not sure is you missed my info in my last post. Nissan was unable to give my build # However

Build Date- 12 FEB 2010
VIN Last 4- 2700

MattP725 10-18-2011 10:25 AM

You never know what they mean by build date... the build date might just be when they were added to the inventory system which may have some sort of viariations...

Pure speculation but lets say one car is assigned a vin and is built up but for some reason they hold off on completion (say a quality control issue or part shortage), maybe that build "date" is put off until it is fully completed.

Try calling back and talking to someone else.
Eventually you will talk to someone who knows what your asking for.
It took some people multiple tries to get their number.

Your build number should be in the 900s, probably close to 950.

It's odd that they have given you two different build dates: 2 Feb and 12 Feb.

I believe the 12 Feb date is the correct one, based on your VIN and comparing it to other VINs/build dates.

islander 10-18-2011 09:41 PM

I've been silently following the thread with great interest and have a running spreadsheet that I update with VINs and Build #s as they come available.

There are a few trends but one which I believe to be accurate is that for VIN #s from 1643 (build #10) to 1797 (build #164) the build numbers are sequential and these vehicles are all US. That is to say that VIN #1683 is build #50, VIN #1733 is build #100,... However, somewhere between Build #s 164 and 205 there are 5 vehicles which may have been for the Canadian market. From that point on there are Canadian VIN #s interdispersed throughout.

My VIN #1959, unfortunately I don't have the build #.

Well, call Nissan Canada at 1-800-387-0122 and get your build number.
