Or is something fishy going on? Thanks also, for the links

, I was wondering where to find some of this info!

It goes off of the badge. Your salesman is a tard lol.

Either that or he was referring to the car or sale in general as 255, but not the Nismo number.

If that's a shot of your badge then you have a 2010 #0040. Those vin numbers are not your run number.

Again congrats.

Ah, the view from the parking lot at Longhorn campus... I'm with the same company as you but just got relocated from Austin to Sunnyvale. So.. I've got NISMO #408 here in the Bay Area. Can't wait to drive to the office in the morning. Had to sell my Carerra two years ago and have been driving a Dodge Nitro SUV since - ugh... been "jonesing" for something that can corner... I've found my new love - rock steady compared to my 996 and more power to boot - for about 20 grand less! Sweet.

I get so many head-turns and drive-by compliments I cannot count them all. I'll bet you do as well--the NISMO is truly a looker. Congrats on the NISMO.

I saw a new GT-R Skyline on I-95 the other day, and thats the only car I have ever pulled up next to, rolled down my window, and gave a hearty thumbs up. They don't look as nice as the NISMO Z, but gosh are they FAST! I would love to have one, but would never commute in it.
