VIN coming up as a 2010 350Z?!

See, even Nissan can't tell the difference between a 350z and a 370z. That 200cc displacement bump and weight savings are all smoke and mirrors; pay no attention to that man behind the curtain.



On a more serious note, if the last letter of your VIN is an M, then it's a 370Z. Nissan manufactured its 350Zs in Oppama/Tochigi (T), but manufactures all model years of the GT-R and 370Z in a factory dedicated to performance vehicles in Tochigi (M).

Incorrect. 350Z production shifted from Oppama to Tochigi midway through the '04 model year IIRC. '03s will have T's as the 11th digit in their VIN as will earlier '04s however later '04s through '08s will all have an "M" as the 11th digit in their VIN.

The most accurate way to determine whether or not a Z is a 350 or a 370 via its VIN is with the 6th digit as the 5th and 6th digits indicate the chassis code. A 350Z's 5th and 6th digits will read Z3 for Z33 whereas a 370Z will read Z4 for Z34.

There's that too, but Z1 and Z2 (300zx) already collide with new Nissan models (Cube/Murano). If they keep that up, then you'll need to know both the model and where it was manufactured to figure out what it is Dunno why their website is having a hard time decoding this though, z3 and z4 are still only used by the z33 and z34 - it's probably just a typo.

I thought they kept the plant code T for all z33s though. Admittedly I only owned a 2003.
