I have been in love with the Z car for a long time now, and as August I finally become an owner of one. It is only a 2009, but it came with a really great price and only a couple thousand miles, so I still consider it pretty new. Even though I have only had the car for about 3 months, I have already looked through so many threads on here to answer some questions, so I finally decided to join and be a part of it.

Now on to figuring out what mod I want to do first (beyond new rims and snow tires in the next week since I live in the northeast and winter has arrived).

 

370z or 350z roadster?

NVM, just noticed what section you posted in. Congrats! Post a picture

 

Welcome and congrats! +1 on pics

 

In for pics

 

Welcome. What spec did you buy?

 

Welcome and congratulations! Now, on to those pictures...

 

I just got the base model. Since it was a used one, I didn't get to make all the choices I wanted. However, it did come with leather, the Bose audio system, and heated seats. Would have been nice to get the S-drive and the Nav head unit, but I can live without those.

As for pics, I need to get out and take some. I will be sure to post them once I do.

 

Unless something is different with the roadsters.. i dont think base models came with leather, bose, and heated seats.. seems you have a touring model. someone correct me if i'm wrong.

 

You sir are correct. You have a Touring model.

 

And that is the part that confuses me. When I bought it, I assumed that it was the touring model, however, when I insured it and the Insurance company looked up the VIN they said it was only a base model.

Not sure if the previous owner bought a base and then somehow only upgraded certain parts, but it has caused me confusion since I bought it.

 

When you look up the VIN I'm pretty sure it lists all the trims.. You have a touring model

 

That is some pretty awesome news. I feel like a noob for not knowing it, but when everyone tells you that you do not have the Touring model (including the dealer who sold it to me), you start to believe them. I always figured I did though.

Thanks for the input.

 

You ought to sort out what model you have with your insurance company, as they may only choose to pay out for a base model if something happens.

 

My VIN says my car is an Enthusiast, but it is a Base. Never said anything though since the Enthusiast has more safety features and I'm covered for a more expensive car just in case anything were to happen, not that it's a huge difference.
