OP, only 2 things that can pretty much identifying a sport pkg.

1. The SyncroRev Match button near the shifter if it's a 6 speed manual. I've never seen anyone has added this feature on a base so far.

2. VIN. Because the Vin number is what dealer used to order the parts from Nissan if your car needs to be fixed. It will(should) be able to tell you if it's a base, sport or nismo.
Apparently you didn't see this post:

If you're buying a new Z from the dealer, if it has sport wheels, it's a sport package. If it doesn't, it is not. It's that simple.

And the VIN does not tell you what model it is. If it did, there would need to be another character added to the VIN aside from the normal number of characters for this...

Base
Base + Sport
Touring
Touring + Sport
Touring + Sport + Nav
Nismo
Nismo + Touring?
And now Nismo + Nav

Maybe if they take the last five, the serial number, and use that only it might be able to bring up more specifics of your car. But that is an individual number, not a special character to identify all cars of that model.
