I keep seeing members telling others to get the 05-06's sedans instead of the 03-04's due to all the issues that were fixed.

What bugs did the 03 and 04 have?

Also the valve covers are prone to leak oil into the spark-plug wells where it will puddle around the plug/electrode/probe whatever...

You might have better luck asking here: https://g35driver.com/forums/g35-sed...on-thread.html

no major problems

they are all little interior or rattle problems

engine and tranny are both built very well.

Some engines have the oil in the spark plug issue but its not a big deal like most make it out to be

The manumatic shift logic is improved 04.5 and up.

The 03 ECU is less tune-able.

Black lower sills suck (but nismo doesn't)

Definitely 100% your radio will give you issues rather it be the cd changer not working or some type of error mostly 03-04 sedans...

2 stereos have gone bad on me so i think its time for an aftermarket double din kit and radio...
