Preheat oven to 350F. Coat the bottom and side of a 10 inch springform pan with vegetable oil. For the crust, microwave the butter in a medium microwave safe dish on High for 30 to 60 seconds or until melted. Add the Graham cracker crumbs and sugar and mix well. Pat the crumb mixture over the bottom of the prepared pan. For the filling, combine the cream cheese and sugar in a medium mixer bowl. Beat at medium-high speed until creamy, scraping the bowl occasionally. Add the pumpkin, cinnamon, ginger and nutmeg and mix well. Add the eggs 1 at a time, beating until blended after each addition. Spoon into the prepared crust. Bake for 50 minutes. Remove the pan to a wire rack. Increase the oven temperature to 400F. For the topping, mix the sour cream, sugar, and vanilla in a medium mixing bowl. Spread the sour cream mixture evenly over the top of the cheesecake. Bake for 8 minutes longer. Cool to room temperature on a wire rack. Run a sharp knife around the outer edge to loosen the cheesecake; remove the side. Chill, covered, for 4 hours to overnight. Garnish with whipped topping and pecans.
