Looking to by a 2008 G35x... need your help experts and hardcore enthusiasts!

First of all... Hey guys!

I'm a newbie here but I've finally decided, and I'm buying a G35x and will be staying on this forum for years to come . The G35s are beautiful cars and have a nice amount of power for a v6 which is what I really like about them, and you can't forget about the AWD.

A little back story,
So I'm looking to get a 2008 G35x with under 50k miles. Im driving a Saab atm and the FWD 2.0T isn't going to cut it for me anymore. I have a couple years of automotive experience so hopefully ill catch on to what you guys are trying to explain to me.

The Qs,

Is it worth buying a luxury car like the G35 after its seen 30-45k miles?
Since its nissan I wouldn't expect the parts to be to expensive. Am I right? Or no?
What are the main issues I should be looking for while buying this car?
Are mods going to leave me broke and eating ramen noodles for months?
Is it easy to tune and mod?


Please feel free to add any answers to questions I might of missed that you guys are aware off.

Thanks!

I'm looking at a few, but I'm probably going to buy in about a month or so.
So right now I'm just trying to get all of my facts straight.

Depends that's you're personal preference i bought mine CPO with 23k on it and i dont mind. i love my G but do i wish i had bought something else? from time to time

Since its nissan I wouldn't expect the parts to be to expensive. Am I right? Or no?
Technically it is a nissan but because here in American its an Infiniti so get ready to pay Infiniti prices some things you might be able to get from a nissan dealership but its still not cheap. i needed to replace an o2 sensor and the nissan dealership quoted me more than the infiniti dealership...

What are the main issues I should be looking for while buying this car?
Not really sure i havent encountered anything serious yet....

Are mods going to leave me broke and eating ramen noodles for months?
Yes, there arnt many options when i comes to mods for this car, but the few mods that really do make a difference cost a good amount unless you plan on buying your mods from autozone and ebay. youre not moding a honda but its not a GTR

Is it easy to tune and mod?
Depends on what you want to mod. Tunes are available just gota find somewhere that knows what they're doing.

Thanks for the detailed reply! So modding is going to be expensive but it sounds like it's
worth the buy. Keep in mind I'm looking at the sedan. I've owned a coupe before. Can't fit in those things.
