Reliability

I have owned about 30 cars including Italian, German, other Japanese makes and my 03 G is by far the most reliable car

I have ever owned. Going on 110k with original clutch. No other issues. Had the car for f seven years with no repair expense only regular maintenance which is key if you want to keep the the car long term.

Most reliable cars I've ever owned was Maximas..started with a 98, retired it and gave it to my son who didn't take care of it and still got 300k..my 01 current drive is nearing 300k and no issues other than replacing a rad last summer...I just got my first G coupe last Saturday..2004 with 136k on it...mint...1 owner was a doctor.
Needed nothing for saftey inspection and nothing for emmissions test.
Hoping for a long run on the G!

This thread is so old...i think i posted in 2007

I have about 75k miles and since then i had a window motor go out and a door actuator. I also had a bad wheel bearing. No other issues...motor doesn't burn a drop of oil but i change religiously every 3750k miles with full synthetic.

Still drives like the day i bought her

84k on my 06 revup 6mt G coupe. OC is minimal with about .5 qt every oil change which is "normal". No complaints here. I had a maxima with a VQ with 185k miles and it ran great as well and sold it only to upgrade. VQ's are great. I think that my driver side valve cover may need replacing though as some spark plugs had a little bit of oil on them so I'll have to address that soon.

102,000 on my 03 coupe. Engine is perfect. Wheel shimmies slightly at speeds in excess of 80 mph but that's cause I have a slightly bent passenger side front rim. I need new rims anyway :-)

Had the gear box replaced because 5th gear died but that was 5 years ago. Other than that - no major problems (yet),
