which would be a smarter buy? ive been looking at the g35 for the better part of a year now and these are the cars ive narrowed my decision down to:


2005 2005
IP 5 AT 19000 miles vs. IP 5 AT 11000 miles
wheat stone
nav premium
premium aero
$29,000 $29995
sport tuned suspension (stock 19 " rims)

im thinking the first option but the fact that it has 8000 miles more than option 2 is making me think harder about the decision. is the 8000 mile difference big enough to go with option two or should i stick with option 1?
more responses the better lol

this is why im stuck. because, yeah, i can get option two which has 8000 fewer miles however it doesnt have the nav or the 19 inch wheels. if i got option 1 i would have the wheels, which i prefer obviously, and nav for cheaper however i would have a car with 20000 miles vs. one with just over 10000 miles. i want nav on my car but i dont foresee myself spending 1800 on a z1 just for nav when i can get a w200 for 750 and just keep the stock nav if i go with option 1. I NEED HELP lol is 8000 miles a big enough reason to pass up on nav and sport tuned suspension package as well as paying roughly 1000 more. uhhh long post.

i would get option 1..yea its 8000 miles more but either way its pretty good if u ask me..i got the 19's with sport suspension and the whole 9 execpt the navigation which i really woulda loved..i would get it...also about the price i bought my 05 with 12k miles for 29-30K so its ur choice and u got the navigation on top of it all which i did not get ...so when comparing it to my car ..we are paying the same amount of money..i got mines with everything but the navigation and ur gettin navigation with about 6k miles more..not bad if u ask me..go for it!

i'd go with option 1, you have surpassed the horrid 15k service and are low range for the 30k. opt 1 has a not more perks

OPT 1 for sure

Nav + 19's

in a few yrs, with the Nav u'll probly save the 8k miles by never getting lost ....miles saved

with the 19's you wont be pressed to upgrade ur stocks right away.
i bet if u had 17's u be paying 2k for a set of wheels a week after u buy the car ...money saved

& yes it passed the 15k service already .....more time & money saved


OPT 1 hands down!!

If you plan to upgrade to aftermarket wheels, the OEM 19's wouldn't matter too much. You can also pick up a set of 19's for around $1000 off this site. But IMO the stock navi sucks donkeyballs. You're better off getting aftermarket.

And i don't like wheat interior.

If i were you, i'd get Option 2.

my 2006 navi pretty much amazing i think its changed a bit..imo id go to dealerships looking for left over 06's and u should be s\able to get a fully loaded 1 for 32k atleast when i bought my 06 they offered me 6 05s for 32k with 6miles on them so i would do that also i would get a 6mt. the 32k were for 6mt so if ur gettin a 5at it should be cheaper then that.
