Your thoughts on this G?

I am looking to buy a G35 and found this one while lurking around on craigslist.
Please share your thoughts on whether this would be a good car or not.
Looks like the wheels are pretty messed up, but ignore them because I can purchase new ones.

Thanks for your help in advance,
Chris

Eh..doesnt look to bad but id stay away from a car that has been messed with. Try and find a stock G35 if you can. And the **fast car** part makes me think its not a seller I would want to work with.

thats a lot of miles. but a pretty fair price.

as long as you do your homework, a modded car is not a bad thing.

i bought my g already modded with the greddy kit and a lot of other options, but i had money left over to fix it if anything went wrong. when i bought it last year it was an 03 with only 33K on the clock. havent had a single problem yet, and i'm creeping up on 41K

I would also look for a non-modded car.
If still want it, at least find out who did the mods and ask for receipts.

My thoughts are....PASS!

I'd pass on this coupe, looks beat up and abused! Also what the owner claims about the mods sounds like B.S.! There's nothing wrong with buying a G35 with mods if they're quality parts and done right, that's a plus in my book....
