Ok, Here is what im looking for...
I have a 2003 350z track.

On my VIN, my serial number (the last 6 numbers) is 014779 WHICH MEANS: I have the 14,779th 350z made in 2003.

I know that part.

What im wondering is: Can anyone tell me how to tell what "track model" production number my car/any 350z would be? Like if someone told me "track models where serial numbers 10,000 - 16,000 or something, so then I could break down what number I am...

For example im the 14,779th 350z to roll out of nissan, but I could be only the 427th track model made...

Thats what I'm looking for...
Can anyone help, or give advice???

Thanks.

Nope, Nissan has never announced production numbers by model. Only on the Nismo editions are they individually numbered. BTW - no production numbers by color either.

 

here is an idea. call the dealer parts section and ask them.

 

Huh?

 

what part of "call the dealer....the parts section.....to give them the VIN # and ask them all this information did you not get?

 

Here is how a vin number works;

 

The part where they tell him more than 1) yes, it's a track model 2) it was probably the 14,779th Z produced 3) no, Nissan doesn't track which sequence Track model this is.

 

lol...least that would be some type of an answer.

 

I just compared a VIN using the Nismo I want to buy and a solar orange, same year, all numbers were the same except for the 9th digit and the serial number according to the graph above. Does this mean that the only way to discern between models lie in the serial number? For example, when looking for insurance, do you tell them it's a Nismo, or do you tell them it's a 350z and go through the options it has? My insurance just showed it as a 350z from the VIN. Is insurance more expensive on a Nismo than say a grand touring, which has more options and is better equipped?

 

how is it you guys can never get answers for vins? all i do is call my parts guys at the dealers and they dish out all the info i need.....

 

I've wondered this same question. It is too bad Nissan does not offer this information.

I've got an 03 track, last six is 109511

 

For insurance and car loan purposes it would be under 350Z and under the options it'd be Nismo... That's what I noticed when I bought my lady.

 

To an insurance company the trim package doesn't matter, my Nismo is marked just as a "2007 350z".

 

The VIN will not tell you if it's a track model or not.

 

As always, go to the source...

... as you can see, there's nothing to identify trim, model, color, sequence.

 

+1 Thank you!
