you can get an 05 for that price.

The rear bumper looks 100% repainted. Looks like a bad color match.

oh S__T that contrast stands out!

Definitely keep looking; for that mileage and price you can do better.
I'd recommend checking out an 05 or 06 to get an idea of the interior changes from the earlier models, thats what sold me.

it's really hard to tell even we see the real car. thank you very much. and further, i can't see repainted on it's CARFAX. is that because he hide the truth?

05 one``` but i search a lot, same price , the milleage will higher like 6K or 7K. and the extended warranty seems like a good idea

The best way to get a feel would be to physically go and look at it. If there's an infiniti dealer nearby stop in and check out the cars. (Don't buy one from them tho LOL)

The interior was completely redesigned in 05, it has better gauges, clock, brushed aluminium instead of cheap-looking plastic.. etc etc. It just looks a lot more refined and luxury.

And above all be patient and don't give up. I had cash in the bank and still looked for 3 solid months and then ended up flying 700 miles to pick up my car. But I got exactly what I wanted for the price I wanted to pay. Friends were talking **** like "you're never actually gonna get one" but I wanted the perfect car and wasn't willing to compromise

Ya, I think you can find better deal. I think this car maybe good deal for you or for your area, but I'm sure you can find a better one. Just keep looking. I have deal with cars more than 6 years. I meant buying and selling cars. So, I think this is could be a good deal if you dont have to repair for 2 to 3 years. I would say this car for 16,000 to 16,500 I would might think about it. All others here give you the right ideas. Just make sure you pick the one you like and make sure is a good one.

Also keep in mind that if you get a newer one it will most likely have factory warranty remaining, so you wont have to pay for any repairs.

The difference is very slight. My rear bumper's color is off by that much too. Really not that noticable after a good wax. I really wouldnt care about that bumper at all. But I wouldn't pay that much for a 2004, I'd look around some more for a 05.

It's reasonable price at your area. Try to ask whether the winter tires comes with separate rims because it would cost you about 100 more to switch tires every winter. If you can try to reduce another 500 bucks, and make sure the car is in good condition after dealership inspection, then you can consider buying it.
