Be Careful- I don't think this car is a Touring model.

The Touring option includes three items this car does not have:
Satellite radio
Power seats
Heated seats

It looks to me like someone added the persimmon colored seats and doors panels. If you notice, the seats do not have the built-in indentations on the forward side of the thigh bolsters next to the console that house the power seat controls.

The Touring model would have the heated seat controls on either side of the power convertible top switch, which you can see are blanks in the pictures.

Also, the radio is not the satellite radio. I doubt someone actually removed a satellite radio from a touring model and replaced it with the base radio.

Also, the wheels look like model year 2013/2014 wheels, not 2010 Touring wheels.

Seems to me like a prior owner "customized" a base model.

If you call a Nissan dealer with this car's VIN number, they can probably tell you if it is indeed a base model or a Touring, which I doubt.

Good luck, and you might not want to pay a "Touring model price" for a base model car.
