Ehhhh, I think it's a damn good deal. Won't find another G35 under 100k for this much. Lower than KBB and Edmunds and that's the ASKING price. I can get it down to $15,5 for sure. Now, who wants to run the VIN for me (pm me)

It's fairly easy. Just depends on how bad you want it. Trust me, I am one of the few that want it more than ever. And I am well on my way of achieving my goal. If you have drive you will see results.

you may or may not need to do all of that.... just depends if the last owner kept up all the service

15k, even with 90,000 miles, seems too low for an 05. Have you checked its history? I would be suspicious...

98k miles. Almost 100k. I think if I got 15,5 it would be good.

You're right. You're still getting it a bit below what it would sell for. So you're getting a good deal.

I guess its the fact that my 06 6MT with 15k miles still has a 33k suggested retail value & 28k private party. So I was a little doubtful at first. But seeing how many miles it has on it, 15k sounds like a good deal.

Good luck, enjoy the ride, and most importantly, be safe.

Update:

I took it to get inspected today. It checked out perfect. The only things that need attention within the next 5000 miles are some of the basic wear items: serprentine belts, pads, rotors, and windshield wiper blades

Wait, by inspection do you mean that you bought it already? And did the inspection cover a carfax report?

What's the current status of your potential purchase?

By inspection I mean I took it to my mechanics for a full inspection.

I'm going to call her now and see what she can do on the price.
