Used G red flags

I'm thinking to buy a used 2009 G37 X with 100,000 miles. I understand that these are generally reliable cars. Still, 100,000 miles is going to have some wear and tear. Are there any well known red-flags to look for before I take a test drive? Any thing that would be an instant deal-breaker?

Many thanks for your knowledge and input.

Front and rear cameras, tire pressure for all four tires can display on screen,folding side view mir
Accidents, floods, lack of required oil changes just to name a few.

Spend the money for a complete inspection at an Infiniti dealer and if the vehicle is presently at an Infiniti dealer take to another one for a second opinion.

Those are valid concerns for any used car but I was curious about red flags specific to this model (and year).

Your best bet would be to a search. Tons of threads/info on this topic.

Honestly, 100K miles is not that much these days.

A coworker has a 100K mile 2010 G37x. Car is virtually brand new. Not much to really look at other than obvious things like abnormal tire wear, brake wear, and overall general condition.
