The 3000gt guys have a site that you enter your vin into and it tells you what date your car was born on, how many have the same interior, same exterior, or are exactly the same. Which plant it was made at, etc.. What model, trim, etc...

Essentially it's a vin decoder. Do we have such a site for our cars?

The reason I ask is because I was sold a "grand touring" but I'm thinking it's not a grand touring...

It a 07 roadster and I have the touring wheels (but they are both 18" front and rear, I thought GT have 18 front and 19" rear) I do have the brembos but no nav. or bluetooth. I do have the ventilated burnt orange seats. It does have the the bose system as well.

Window sticker says grand touring. I bought the car new.

Is it because it's a roadster that it doesn't have the 18x19?

 

Wish i could help you , are the wheels forged? Did you buy it new ?

 

Yes. I bought it new. Yes, they are the 35th anniversary wheels. I think I remember hearing somewhere that the 07 ROADSTER grand touring didn't come with the iforged rays, it comes with the 35th wheels. But I can't find any solid information on the web to confirm that.

 

The gt roadsters came with the 18in wheels that are standard on all other trim levels, not the 18/19 forged rays that come on the coupe gt. I don't think B.T. was available on the roadsters. The brembos and VDC set the GT roadster apart from the touring. So, you have a grand touring (assuming you have VDC since you have a 6MT).

 

Yes! I do have VDC!

And just for S&G's, can you reference your source for said information?

 

My mind lol, b/c I was considering getting a roadster about a year ago when I sold my 03 so I did plenty of research on it. The 09 roadster is the same, with respect to these areas, as the 07 so Nissan's website would have the info.

 

The courtesy parts website has a quick reference guide for reading the VIN.

From what I have noted from the site and a quick google search, trim level is not included in the VIN.

 

There's nothing in the VIN to identify model trim such as Touring, GT, Track, etc.

Only a Nissan dealer can look it up in their system and tell what the official trim level is.

Nav is optional. Roadsters typically had/have different items from the coupes. If you bought it new then it is what the sticker says it is.

 

Thanks guys! Love this forum.

 

PM me the model number, I'll check it for you.

 

in case you're still curious what your VIN can tell you check this (its not perfect but it gives you the idea):
