07 g35 coupe 6mt clean title, 60k miles for 18,000?
my only concern is the car fax it says this:

What's your concern?
I'd say it's a good price for a coupe. 60k miles is only 15k per year which is average now a days. I've put over 200k on 2 Nissans and I'm still driving one of them. If it had oil consumption problems they should have been addressed by now.

 

That sounds like a good price to me. I paid $17 for my 06 with 75K on it, two owners. I discovered later that it had been wrecked (faint mismatch in paint on left front fender) but the CarFax was clean. I've had no problems after 4 months. I suspect I overpaid by about $1000. But, the one you are looking at is a later model with fewer miles so the price seems fair at least.

 

The price looks good and the report seems fine, although I'm not sure how reliable Carfax is. It may just be me, but I'm extremely, extremely nervous when looking at used G coupes. Many of them have been pushed hard and the tell-tale signs are not always visible. I often see G coupes being pushed or driven hard and you read stories here about how many guys throttle their cars and eventually trade them in or sell them to move up a step.

I do a lot of cycling and have known a few serious cyclists who will sell their $3-5K bike after they've worn out the gearing system. Unsuspecting buyers see Madone, Pinarello or Litespeed and jump on it, only to realize later that the frame is fatigued, or the flightdeck and gearing needs to be replaced... and this can easily cost >$1500.

Just my paranoid thots, which many will likely disagree with.

 

Sounds like a good deal.

 

I don't disagree but I'm not sure it is relevant. I think it just comes with the territory (sports cars, fast bikes, 4x4 trucks, etc). But the bottom line is that a vehicle is only worth what the market says its worth and generally the 'market' (car buyers) have an idea what any given vehicle is supposed to look like, drive like and be worth when it has 'x' amount of miles on it.

And in truth, I'd probably rather take my chances with a decent sports car that may have been driven hard (which it is presumably made for) but valued by its owner than a Honda Accord that some housewife has driven for 5 years without changing the oil, always drives with her foot on the brake, frequently drives over parking lot barriers and makes frequent back and forth 2mile trips (soccer practice) and in which the family pet/infant has barfed in at least once a week.

 

Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhh... the other extreme. Good point! I drove a beautiful 540 beemer before buying my sedan, perfect body and all. Pulled the oil cap and saw that it was gunked and asked the guy when he changed the oil. He said annually (every 15-20K) with conventional oil!! Babied car in one area that had crappy maintenance.

 

x on that man! My GF never warms up the car, never takes care of anything or does any maintanence until something actually breaks, makes short trips all the time, car smells funky and she only changes the oil once every 6 months. I would rather buy a car that got romped on a bit by an owner who takes care of the car than someone who doesnt flog it a lot but takes zero care of the car.
