I have an 18k loan approval, but due to some credit issues, I must buy the car now or risk not being able to buy it. Finding an 03-04 coupe seems doable, however, It has been tough finding what I want. I find low mileage cars with the wrong interior color. Or correct colors and mileage, but no sunroof, etc. Finally I found a car but the mileage is a bit more than I am comfortable with.

6mt, Diamond Graphite, Black interior, Sunroof, wing, BUT 72K miles.

Is reliability an issue with these cars? Should I be concerned with the mileage? I was hoping to find one closer to 60k miles, but I am running out of time. Any thoughts?

 

I have 2 G35's. One is a 2005 coupe with 38K miles and the other a 2003 sedan with 98K miles. Both have been very reliable vehicles. No events have occured to put me on the side of the road because of mechanical mishaps.

For my 2003 sedan w/98K miles I have replaced my Radio (known defect) and replaced the battery (regular maintenance). Just make sure before you buy that the warranted issues were taken care of.
