Default Nismo Type 380RS in the US for sale?

Saw this ad today for a 380RS here in Austin, TX. I'm pretty sure they never sold this model here...This guy obviously doesn't know what hes talking about, or I don't!

The 380RS does not have the amber reflecters
on the front bumper it's a Nismo 350Z

Clearly the rims are gun metal...Nismo. 380RS has the grand touring color Nismo rims, not gun metal...God the guy just has to pop the hood. It clearly says 3.5...

"350Z Nismo - 2007 - $26499 (SW Austin)"
"306 horsepower and 268 lb-ft of torque"
"It is #187 of 1,500 Nismo's produced in the USA"
"gunmetal Nismo-branded Rays five-spoke lightweight alloy wheels"

Clearly Not an RS
