it is gray color with black interior has 35k miles and listed for $24 .. but the carfax said it has 2 owners and the car was repoarted stolen from the 2nd owner. so i don't know whether i should get it or not... i didnt see the car yet... but i'll go see the car tomorrow.

So is the G36 a new model???
How many miles are on the car? Seems like a really low price.

35K miles for $24K? Seems a bit low. The links don't work for me so I can't read the car stats. Is it fully loaded? What area do you live in? Cuz around here, you would find that car for about $5,000 more usually.

Go check it out, it might be a good deal.

^they've got three G's there to compare to. The car looks and sounds good. Buying from a used car dealer will not likely give you the same kind of warranty a new car dealer would if there actually was something wrong with the car soon after you bought it.

Go check it out, drive it. See how it sounds and feels. You never know, could be a great car or could have been treated like $hit.

take it to a mechanic do a 100 points inspection if you are really serious about getting it, after all a trained professional knows better

I agree but make certain that you take it to an Infiniti certified mechanic for the inspection. The inspection is called a PPI: pre purchase inspection. Price for PPIs vary but expect to pay around $100, but it will provide you with peace of mind.

I notice the blurb about must finance through us.. what are there rates? they raping you? The car has the aluminum pedals so someone cared for the car... But wait.. why was the car inspected on 1/5/2004 and then again on 2/3/2004.. why did the car fail when only a year old? With that and it being stolen..I would want it looked at professionally.. was it crashed when stolen? beat the hell out of.. ya know the saying "Drive it like its stolen" .... Good luck.. let us know how you make out...
