'04 G35 sedan w/ 65K '06 engine for $5,500?

Hi,

I found a 2004 G35 sedan (automatic) with 65K miles for $5,500. When I called he mentioned that he had changed the '04 engine to an '06 G35 with 65k miles.

I'm not a hard driver and I don't drive fast and furious. I would use this car for my daily ride, which is less than 20 miles.

I've been told that it's too old for a used car, but I really don't want to spend so much on a car that will end up parked on the street at night.

Assuming the car looks decent, is this a good buy? I'm including some exterior pics of the car.

Thanks.

Yep mileage on chassis, any CEL? Run the VIN, see if there's anything that's on record that should be disclosed? Either way GL and keep us informed, hopefully you'll get your DD.

Other stuff

You also gotta consider the condition of the tranny, the differential, and the suspension components.

Seas there's no reason for you to comment to a potential buyer from 2015. He hasn't logged on in 3 years.....

You know what? I'm currently, in 2019, thinking of buying a 2005 g35. This thread perhaps remains helpful to ppl who aren't you, Blue.

I appreciate the lore and any new info related to high mileage g35s. I'm looking at an '05 with 150k, a new (2 years old) transmission, expected wear and tear (after 14 years on this crummy rock) and probably gonna pay $2200 for it.

I joined merely to say to "blue dream" that you're rude and don't understand how the internet works vis-a-vis time. And if it annoys you to read someone's message maybe just don't be here. It seems it's gonna **** you off.

He's not being rude, he's doing his job as a forum moderator by merely stating to the previous poster to not necro a 3 year old post when the OP is inactive unless you have something to actually add to the conversation. I think you don't understand how forums work and I strongly suggest the next time you read something that gets you mildly offended to simply move on instead of trying to create drama where none existed.

Closing this thread because it's served it's purpose, good day chaps.
