Looking to buy an '08 Base G35. A mechanic buddy of mine said that the G works well but when they break out of warranty, I'm screwed. He said the costs would kill me and that I should buy American. I like the G. Anyone have any general comments about typical repair costs.
Alternator, water pump, transmission, etc.?

 

i have no comments, because with my '04, i have not had any major issues, other than brake pads.

4 1/2 years (oct 3rd, '03). maybe he was thinking of bmw?

 

Or maybe he was thinking the other way around...
I'd rather own a Japanese mad car than an American made car...but thas just me of course...
