Oh im not going from a vette to a G35, the G35 is a daily driver... Ill still have 2 vettes one z06 and one conv. the Black frc has 500rwhp and is LOUD as heck with no cats and BB exhaust, so it would make for a LONG drive 800 miles back and forth from Destin to Sa while I move everything...

I feel you brother, It took my a good 5 months to find a G that was up to my standards and within my budget (and I was going to auctions). 11.5 is a good price. Im sure you have checked the bay for cleanness and tail pipes and all that. Somehow I feel like someone who pops curbs and runs into stop signs may not have taken the best care of his car. Good luck and keep us posted with pics if you end up getting it.

how come you are getting a DD with such high miles then? If I were you I'd shell out a little bit more for something thats guaranteed problem free and has lower miles

+1 on that.
The average car starts to break down at around 80k, that car is already there. Better off dropping a couple $K more and getting a car with waaaayy less mileage. I also have a 2K SE MAX that I use as a DD, it too started needing expensive repairs at 80K.

Paid 10.5 for it, Its absolutely flawless, new clutch intake chrome mesh grill new tires put on last week, I cant find any paint flawns and I own a Auto Detail business in SA,TX so im picky when it comes to cars, It was almost hard to find something wrong to try to talk him down but I just used the " accidents " as an excuse and It worked, not even the smallest stratch on the car engine is flawless... I cant believe I talked him from 13,500 to 10,500....

I bought this one bc I wanted a car I could drive back and forth and get more than I put into it when I sell it, IF I SELL IT, after the 2 hour drive home I fell in love with it, Almost to the point im considering the g37 once all the moving is said and done...

I am extremely impressed with Infiniti!!!!

A+++++

HAHAHA...

I dont want to mod it too much, I spend over 60k on my Lingenfelter vette and didnt get a penny out of it, LESSON LEARNED... I dont want to put too much on it bc then I get to the same point as why I sold the FRC... too loud to many mods for long road trips ect... 10% tint goes on tomorrow, and tryin to track down a OEM spoiler for it... 99.98 Shipped on EbAy...

Man I cant keep a car for 3 months are you kidding... were going to try this time though, usually I get a car sittin " PERFECT " and something else comes along so I sell it and buy another toy, usually makin 1-2k off them, BUT DOWN SIDE is the stress and sleepless nights that go into them, Example : my 2003 cobra had a stage 5 blower, we could not get it tuned, sold blower put a Kenne Bell on still couldnt get it right, and come to find the accufab TB was 2* off and not opening fully... That car had a fully build dodge viper tranny SCT maf Kenne Bell BAP alum. drive shaft fully built rear end spec stage 3+ clutch ect ect... Once I got it running right and dialed in someone offered me 3k more than I owed on everything, so it sold... Its hard to turn down offers for more than you owe on cars needless to say..

I think I can prob make 2k off this one come time to sell seeing how everything is PERFECT, did compression test today : PASSED, took to infiniti they did complete imspection: PASSED...

Just right place right time...

Then this car was the BIGGEST NIGHTMARE! Those who have owned/ or drove vipers know how rough of a ride they are, how small and tight the interior is, all around the car is a purpose built race car, no cup holders ect ect...
