Should I buy it?

Hello all, new to the forum. Really interested in an 03' Sedan. It has the Premium package, Sport tuned suspension package, winter package, and aero package. 110K original owner. Both retired and GM retirees lol. I can tell by their home that they take pride in ownership. Asking $7500 and we agreed on $7000 if it passes my eye and road test tomorrow. What do you guys think? Reasonable price?

My understanding on the G35 is Excellent acceleration, decent mpg for its weight, rear wheel drive, reliability excellent, and body style has stood the test of time. Minuses would be they eat tires, and not great in the snow.

Any tips would be appreciated!

My G is fine in the snow, once I put my four snow tires on.

Depends on what sort of tires you install. I'm getting 70K miles on mine. It's mostly guys installing summer performance tires that have wear issues...but that's just how those tires are. 20K miles and done.

Oh and the AWD models are plenty good in the snow.



Anyway, to answer your question. $7K seems a little high for a 12 year old G35. It may be in nice shape, but it's an older car with over 100K miles. $5-6K is prob a good range provided it's as clean and well maintained as you state.
