G35 manufacturer buy back/lemon car

2006 G35 blk/blk all options except Nav, 15k miles. Needs tires. $28,500.
Is that a good deal on a car that was bought back due to engine blowing.
This is one of those cars that had oil burning issue. In 1000 miles, car burned over 4 qts and motor blew. Infiniti dealer put a new long block in it under warranty, then owner made them buy it back under lemon law since he had a few other issues, car went to auction, bought by broker, now wanting to sell to me.
Car fax shows this history. Car has full warranty, everything checks out, real good shape, everything works as it should. Now that it has a brand new long block from the factory, it runs perfect and has full warranty for another 4yrs/55k miles.
What should the price penalty be for this problem since it will ALWAYS be a part of this cars history? $1000, $2000, $3000, more???
If it wasn't for needing tires, I would think the price (even considering the negative history), would be very good.
Comments or advice would be appreciated.
Thanks.

All options except nav?? Almost all g35's come with everything but nav...plus a blown motor...i would stay away unless they are offering you a extended warranty or something.
