So am I supposed to be offended by the fact that I chose the auto trans when the car is available in manual? I really don't get it when people get **** for driving the G35 in auto. It's like saying Ivory is better than Obsidian because there's pretty glitter in the paint: all personal preference BS.

Yeah, you would pass, but you're not buying the car...are you?

looks good to be. Get a third party inspection, Carfax is meh. I never rely on car fax when buying a used car. I always get a third party inspection.

Can't really tell if it's good just by pics.

You should also ask if he has or had any engine mods on the car.
Not sure what aftermarket rear bumper that is though.

All of the above....^....you need to drive it, get a CARFAX and have it checked out by a qualified Infiniti mechanic before you lay down any $$....

Negative. My G had no history of accidents, but it was obviously the front and rear bumpers, and the rear driver's side quarter panel have been resprayed.

Bottom line is one cannot rely on AutoCheck and CarFax at all. It's a good place resource, yes, but when it shows a clean record you have to be even more vigilant to resprayed/repaired areas.

Not to thread hijack, but can you maybe PM me the How-To on the tail-light tinting? I have a laser red 06 Coupe and there is just to much red on the rear.
