Original Owner Overview
I was really dragging my feet to make this post, but the time has come, the G must go. I spent many months researching and driving every vehicle in the class and ultimately chose this one. I really felt you got 95% of a BMW with 75% of the financial outlay. I ordered this car from George Harte Infiniti in West Haven, CT and it was of the last builds for 2006 before the switch to the new model. Delivery date was May 31, 2006.

Notable Attributes

- Diamond Graphite Paint on Graphite Leather (most desirable colour combo)
- 298hp, VQ35 V6 engine paired with a 6-speed close ratio manual gearbox and LSD
- 0-60 in 5.5 seconds
- 23 city/27-29 highway MPG (observed)
- Reclining rear seats fitting two full-size adults comfortably
- Drag coefficient of .27

This car is as-clean-as-they-come. As many of you know, I detailed professionally for four years, now just on the weekends. I will guarantee this is the cleanest of 2006 G35s for sale right now. Garaged since day one, washed weekly, detailed every 2 months, polished every 6, you will not find any swirl marks, scratches, dings, scuffs, rips, stains, etc anywhere. This G35 is 100% loaded, I ordered every single option available down to the Premium Warranty (4yr/60k transferable).

History

This car has provided 25,xxx miles of worry-free, exhilarating driving. Note: 25k miles was hit on 3/25 and the car will be driven about 20 miles per day during the week. It was originally used by myself, but then upon assumption of a company vehicle was handed over to my fiancée to use on her short commute to and from work. It really wasn’t her first choice of vehicle, transmission, and colour, so since I’m rarely using the car, it’s pretty selfish of me to ask her to use it. It’s off to the Land Rover dealership we go to find her something, but before that, the G must find the right owner.

I have cared for this car probably better than I’ve cared for anything else. I cannot emphasize how flawless this car is. I challenge the next owner to find dirt anywhere but the undercarriage. All oil changes and routine service were performed by George Harte Infiniti in West Haven, CT at their respective intervals. The tires and brakes are original but still have about 40% life remaining for either. I will also include an extra set of OEM 17” Infiniti wheels with OEM tires (75% tread) with the purchase (over $2000 value) that were intended for winter use. The car will also come with the front splash guards (removed for aesthetics), original intake system, and front plate mounting hardware.

very nice clean sedan, great photos! although absolutely loaded would mean (to me) that is has an automatic transmission, seeing that it's an option. good luck with your sale!

 

Haha!

I guess you are correct, but I feel tranny is more of a "choice" than option.

 

Offer currently pending.

 

good luck on the sale... definitely a gorgeous and well kept sedan!
