06 with 88K vs 03 with 68K

The 06 is $11K and the 03 is $10K. Which one do you think is a smarter buy? Both are g35 coupes, silver, and in good condition from a local dealership. Hoping for some insight, Jad.

I cant call off all of the specifics but I'm pretty sure that the 06 has design upgrades over the 03. Someone can correct me if I'm wrong but I believe the brakes were updated. There are other changes as well. HID's might be another. Hopefully some G nuts will chime in.

Thanks for the input guys. I just want to mention that the main priorities for me is a nice interior and overall reliability. So I understand the 06 has a better interior and from what I can tell more horsepower, but is it a smarter decision financially?

Yeah I guess so. I am just trying to see what everyone else's opinion is I guess. I am leaning towards the 06.

Neither. I would just look for something 07+ if you can.

06 and 03 probably has the same gas mileage...

i would do 06.. it has updated parts and gadgets..

I have an 03.. while I like it, when I get 2006 or 07+ models as loaners.. i can tell they are better without a doubt..

Alright I guess that I will be shooting for the 06 with 88K miles. Anyone have any idea on this car's yearly expenses/maintenance compared to other cars in the price range? I want to see how much up keep this car may need. Thanks

Check the service history. That would make the choice easier I think. Low miles arent good if it didnt have maintenance performed. I would go for the 06 if it was maintained. You get more ponies and all the improvements.
