Wrong vin for model?

TeratoZ · 08-27-2015, 12:51 AM

i was looking at this 2011 370z touring. The guy said that the vin number shows up as a nismo instead of touring. Is it possible? Wouldn't that affect the car insurance and I have to go through the dmv to change it?. Thanks! I also haven't check the tittle paper work with the car vin yet, but I will before buying it.

if the guy still has his OEM windshield there is a little peep area on the bottom section driver of the windshield that will show the VIN without having to step into the car.

I understand about matching the vin of the car with the tittle but, does it matter if the model showed up as a nismo instead of touring?

if he's selling a nismo at a touring price, buy it!

And if he's selling a touring with the Nismo price

Then what? Lol.

If you have it, post the VIN and it can be run though a VIN decoder that a member posted several years ago. Can't find the link at the moment, but I'll get it for you.

What year is your Z? The production statistic look-up tool only goes through July of 2013, and when I searched for your VIN, nothing was found.

Here's the link to the tool that a user named Vince created - Nissan 370Z Production Statistics

I ran the VIN through Carfax and it shows an accident history in 2013 (between Jul-Sept) with airbag deployment. It looks like it has had three owners so far (accident with owner 2). The damage was listed as moderate to severe with damage done to left front. Carfax also has it listed as a touring/Nismo.

Dam, they say the title is clean

TeratoZ · 08-27-2015, 03:07 PM
