I bought wrecked 2004 g35 coupe 6mt for $6500 with all repairs it gets me aroud $11K (btw it will be painted tomorrow), As for 2005 g35 coupe $7K something is serious wrong with that car, normally salvage 05 g35 coupe 6mt sells for $12-13k

 

^ auctions only go 14-16k

go figure O.O

with warranty most of the time too

 

This thread is like a soap opera. It went from "don''t buy that car" too "dont hate on young people" to "blind spots" I guess a pretty bad soap opera, but it was amusing. It made me laugh.
SxSkyLinexS, you are too funny, i enjoyed your comments throughout the middle of the thread the most.
Ill comment on all three issues,

1. Don't buy the car
2. [SARCASM]hating on young people is fun[/SARCASM],don't want to be flamed by Armin'sG, lol so i wrapped it in sarcasm quotes.
3. Blind spots suck and there are some tough ones on the G

 

11 months actually. and you must not know cars if you think a clk 550 is a sedan. Its a coupe buddy, do u just talk without thinking about what ur going to say?

 

Texas is a great state as are the people but do you actually talk like you post....yuaall?

Sometimes. I used to live in Canada for a while, then califorina, and now
Texas. Some people have a very heavy Texan accent

 

Thats what I had for my first "owned" car

All the young kids wanted to race me ( I was 26 at the time). That car was amazing and I learned A LOT with it.

I got my 06 MT G at 29. Almost no one tries to race anymore....

To the OP: I really feel that you want a G35 and I understand why. But I seriously recommend buying an old Honda as a first car since it is REALY EASY to learn stuff with them and very reliable. + they have a lot of space in the engine bay to work. GL doing work on the G, there`s no space!

Keep the old car 1-2 years, then get a G. You will understand "later".

 

if i have to find a different car, ill just get a new one, cause i can

 

I concur! Get yourself a nice obd1 honda civic. Beat the living **** out of the stock d15b_. Then, swap that turd out for a nice h22a, throw some juice on it, and beat the **** out of that as well. By then, you'll appreciate wrenching... AND you'll probably have the "young and stupids" out of your system and be ready for the G. They're cheap, easy to work on, and a great platform for learning.

 

hey, im not paying for gas, i dont have nothing to worry about

 

I'm glad I don't live around you. Maybe that's the norm where you live, but you know what everyone is thinking on the forum and why you claim you're being hated on?...it's because we all think you're a douche. We're not hating because you're 16 and wanting to own a G...we're hating cuz you're being retarted trying to impress everyone on how you drive mommy's MB around all day and how rich all the dipsh*ts at your school are. NO ONE CARES!!! It only hurts your credibility, because most people around here (and in life in general) have respect for those who have earned their way. I'm glad you've got plenty of money that mommy and daddy invested for you, and I'd love to say you'll end up at community college, but you won't cuz mommy and daddy have already been saving for you to go to some prestigious university. You shouldn't be allowed to give the OP real world advise because you know nothing about it...

I wanted something as awesome as the G too when i was 16 (which was back in 2000), but I drove my mom's 150hp 4 door Grand Am around. When i went to college, I bought that car from them because it was the sensible thing to do. That car lasted me 9 years of my life, and I barely had to drop a dime into it outside of routine oil changes. Only now that I am 25 and have my future pretty much secure did I go out and drop money on a used G. The best part of it was that I had the money to buy something with low miles and a warantee. Plus i have money to maintain it properly.

To the OP: I respect you cuz it sounds like you're taking to heart what people here are telling you. Honestly, I'd put your money into a nice civic or prelude. No one here has a real problem with you going out and getting a G at 16. We would just like to see you make a wise decision and step into one with a clear title and reasonable miles because that's your safest best on a big investment that is your first car. You've also got plenty of time in life to get the car of your dreams. Why do you NEED it at 16? While i disliked my Grand Am cuz it wasn't a 300hp sports car, I loved that car to death b/c it was my first car. You'll have love for it no matter how crappy it is BECAUSE you can say it's yours. Plus you'll learn what safe driving and car ownership is all about in a platform that will be easier on the wallet and less tempting to do stupid stuff in. Trust me, you WILL do stupid stuff because it's your first car. Everyone here can attest to that.

 

^^^wow, fairly honest response.
& yes you will do at least 1 stupid act with your 1st car @16...G or civic & even if you pay for it yourself. lol...your choice youngin, try not 2 live with regrets if you know what you need 2 do inside. just my .02

 

i love that car
sorry i mistaked a coupe for a sedan... i stopped reading your post when you brought up how expensive your parents cars are

DOMO

Enjoy the coupe man its a great car

 

I dont get it.

Why do people have user names such as G35,6MT, or Armin'sG when they dont/ cant even afford a g35?

Doesn't make much sense.

 

buy a g..! crash and burn.!
