Hi guys, this is my 1st post here. I'm about to pull the trigger on a 2005 black g35 sedan with 120kkm.
The car has premium, sport and aero pack. The price is 14k cad firm, private sale. Is this a decent price? There seems to be a discrepancy b/t www.vmrcanada.com and the black book. The trade in estimate from vmrcanada is at 14k for this car however the black book price is lower

Btw, the front bumper and hood were replaced due to a fender bender. Also, the doors were replaced under warranty due to rust recently. Is there going to be any potential problems with non-original doors? anything else i should pay particular attention for? Thanks in advance everyone!

Doesn't seem too bad for an 05, but the mileage is a tad higher than average I'd think. Personally I wouldn't be worried about the doors, hood etc, but it all depends on how the job was done. I paid 15 for my 04 6mt with 100k in October though.

Good luck with it.

Ask if the compression rods have been done. only major flaw with these cars is the oil burning issues but not all have that problem mine seems to have no issues (knocking on wood) its a fun car especialy in 6spd.
