2 g35s and confused

Here's what im working with:

04 g35coupe 43k miles (base model) extras are z tube, pop charger, pac aux and 19 rays. I still owe on this car.

04G35x sedan 119k miles (fully loaded) navi, bose, sat, black leather and remote starter. I dont owe on this car.

ight so i recently bought a house so before i move in i want to make sure money isnt coming out my pocket crazy for stupid things. What i really want is a 07 g35x sedan fully loaded with some miles on it. But if i cant get that what are my options? I dont wanna keep both cars. I would if i wasnt moving (Westbury, LI tax is not a joke)

Should I trade in the coupe and pay off the difference? Also is it recommended to go to Infiniti and do this or to no names? (recieved some lowballs from shabby dealers).

or trade in both and have infiniti find me the 07 g35x with high miles that I want?

Im kinda lost here. Dont want two insurances cuz i will be wasting money?

Thanks for your input. (dont say burn the coupe lol)

If you want a newer sedan than I would start listing your current cars privately where you can typically get a better price.

With that house thing it would make sense to sell the 2 and get the newer x. Just a fast as the coupe and can still be modded nicely. Less insurance and more space in the driveway

He has a house, the "Garage" is where cars are parked not in the driveway! Must be a retard thing, never understood why people use their garages as storage units (junk) and park there cars outside in the weather to deteriorate....

haha don't listen to this crazy fvcker, my sedan is more fun than most coupes I've been in.

On a serious note, I'd sell both of the Gs and get the X you want.

Whether you owe money or not shouldn't impact what you do with a particular car. Your two cars are worth A1 and A2, you owe B. (A1+A2)-B=C, your net car value, and C doesn't change. You either get more for the Sedan but still owe on the Coupe, or get less for the Coupe but lose your payment. The X is worth about $11K on a trade in, or about $14K selling it. The Coupe is worth about $15K trade in, and maybe $19K selling it. But, you're getting a huge bonus on the value because of the very low miles. Unfortunately, that doesn't always translate to the selling price. Private buyers aren't as willing to give you that extra money for lower miles. I think you'd be lucky to get $17K for it on the market (there are a fair number on Autotrader selling for less than that with similar miles).

However, a dealer is more likely to give you that credit because they often go by pure Blue Book. And they might give you more money because of the 19's. So you're looking at $17K on the market or as much as $16K trade in, especially if you're buying an 07/08X from them. BTW, Infiniti is currently offering finance deals on CPO's, as well as 8 years/120K mile warranty.

Option 1: Keep the Sedan and get rid of the Coupe. It'll sell fast because of the lower miles.
Option 2: Get rid of both and buy the 07/08X. It doesn't make sense to keep paying on a Coupe that old. If you're going to have a payment, put it towards a newer car. Depending on what you owe, you might be able to get rid of both, get your 07X, and not have a payment.
