Ehh.. IDK about that one.. No matter what you read or someone says on here I can tell you that G's are problematic.. That G is completely out of every warranty..

Plus there may be something wrong with it.. Thats a very low price.

I bought my 03 in Feb of 08 for 18K and it only had 21K miles on it.. I bought an extended warranty for $2000... That warranty seriously saved my a$$ and it paid for itself as I've had way over 2 grand of warranty work done to my car.

My G is just as problematic as my bro's old Mercedes.. New problem every week.

Learn from my mistake and do lots of research on here... I was so into getting a G that I rushed into it.. I should have got an 06, maybe an 05 at the least.

All the good buys are the 06/07 G's.. I wouldn't ever bother again with an 03-05.. maybe an 05 cause of the interior upgrade.

So thats why you give an offer.. Offer them a little less than KBB.. Its the buyers market anyway..

Also don't buy that 07 coupe from Luxor auto... Its got an 03-05 bumper, they are shady.. So don't fall for their price.

Whats you're budget if you don't mind me asking?

I got my G for 22k with a warranty warranty was around 1K. My G is an 03 and I got it in Oct 07 with 18k miles on it!! Right now I have 43k miles on it and the warranty has paid for new headlights which were cracked in the inside, the passenger side window motor and the fuel tank wouldnt open... Small complaints but at least the warranty covered it....

Im waiting to get the new G37 in a few more yrs of course. Otherwise my car has been a good car & I mile up a car quickly.
