Here's my 2 cents:

So far, the dates and the Canadian build numbers are both in chronological order and 'fit' (i.e. no anomalies).
However, the VIN numbers are not in sequence versus the build numbers.

While tracking the US 40TH VINs and build dates I noticed an anomaly:

Baconboy's VIN and build number are 2600 and 867.
The next one I have is russmanz34 at 2644 and 923.
So, the difference in VINs is 44, but the difference in build numbers is 56.
Therefore, there must have been twelve US 40THs being built on a second production line during this time.

This was at the beginning of February, around the time LMBmikeZ's was built.

So I postulate that there were at least two production lines producing 370Zs, resulting in VINs not being 100% in chronological order.
Maybe this is why it was so difficult for them to figure out the Canadian build numbers.

Although the VINs are messed up, the build dates provided so far fit with the build numbers.
It would be nice to see TheGreatOne's build date. (I might add that it's pretty cool to have Wayne Gretzky on this forum).

The bottom line is that I don't think Nissan is screwing with us.
