I just sold my Evo VIII because with a stage 3 clutch and a gt35r, it was a horrible daily car.

So now Im looking for something nice comfortable and reliable, but still with some get up and go and some fun.

I guess my questions are, how reliable are these cars? Anything I should look for when buying one?

I found this one on craigslist and if I can get it for 13,500 would that be a good deal?

2005-2007 6mt G35 coupes and 2005-2006 G35 6mt sedan are REV-UP motors that tend to burn oil. If previous owner was not OCD about checking and maintaining oil levels than motor was probably run low on oil at some point. Research a ton before spending money as you might be buying someone elses headache.

Well that scares me a lot. Maybe a G35 isnt a good choice if I constantly need to worry about it running low on oil, as I am super OCD about my cars.

 

If you check your oil, you should be fine. G35 are great cars

 

The emblems of the car in the ad are WAY off.

 

Lol! That is so true! Maybe you should pass on this G35 and keeping looking for another G

 

Im also looking at a c55 amg and a 2004 audi s4. Just figured id ask. Its nice to not have to take out a loan though!
Im just going to go out and test drive em all. And look for 04 or older g35s without oil burning motors.

 

Hopefully i dont get blasted for this but you could get and AT????
