What’s going on guys? I’m actually thinking about buying a used 6mt G37 sometime next year. I’ve been looking at 05-07’s G35 6mt Coupes but the whole oil consumption issue is throwing me off. I’ve done my research on both the g35 and 350z forums and it seems like a lot of 6mt’s are having oil problems.

According to a few websites it seems like the g37 will depreciate practically $7-9k in its first year. This means that I would be able to purchase a base g37 for around $25-$28k.

I’m at a $25k budget that’s why I was leaning towards getting a 07’ G35 6mt Coupe. With the added on performance and luxury it seems like buying a G37 is the only way to go. I’ll be honest if I did purchase the G35 I would have put some money into modifications. I think I would rather just pay upfront for a nicer car than just modifying the car in the long run. I’m sure I’ll still end up modding the G37, just not as fast as I would if I bought the G35.

The only drawback about the G37 is that it is a relatively new car. New car means more TSB’s, recalls, etc. Hopefully by sharing a similar platform with the G35 there won’t be many problems.

Honestly, I would be more than happy with a G35. I would have been sold to a G35 if it did not have this oil consumption issue. What do you guys think? Is it worth waiting? Should I look into another car? 350z? WRX STI?

What would you do ? ?

Thanks,

Adam
