The question isn't how long it will last. It can last you a while if you take care of it. It's the life of certain parts that you might have to replace because of normal wear and tear.

When buying a used car. I consider 70,000 miles high. But that's me.

I'd say 75K too. But then again 75K is nothing on a Nissan if maintained properly. If the price is right and it has records to prove it has been kept up I'd say buy it. I just bought my G with 84K and the car runs like new honestly. Keep in mind with that many miles the car may need a few things. Tires, brakes, fluids, belts, filters, etc. My rule of thumb for maintenance is to replace anything that you don't have records/proof that it's been replaced. That is of course unless you can tell by looking at it (tires/brakes) if they need to be changed. Good luck!

In my opinion, 100k is average and over 180k would be high. One of my 240sx had 230k and still runs great until it got hit

Hey if u like the car and know how to save money u'll be fine. I swapped out an engine for like 3k or less and that the worse problem u can have. These cars in my experience are not the most reliable cars. But if u really love this car then get it just be smart about ur choice. I see 100k g35 for 10 grand all the time, thats a good deal.

I'd consider anything over 75k to be high, but then again it would have to correlate with the year too.

It really depends on how the car has been driven and taken care of!! I sold my last Z with 125K miles on the clock but she was garage kept and oil/filter changed with Mobil 1 every 3K miles. All the miles were freeway and the OE brakes lasted 117K miles. I sold my '92 300ZXTT way to cheap at $7K since the body/paint/interior were perfect. I'd just replaced the rear main seal and installed a ACT clutch/flywheel and new injecters. It's on the 3rd owner since I sold it and still running strong....sadly it doesn't look as good. =o(

thats my problem too. i had to find a G with low mileage. i found a 05 with 50k that was perfect, but i ended up getting a 07 with 27k that i love, but wish it had black interior like the 05.

I got my 2004 G35 6MT in September. It only had 45,000. I don't want to buy a used car with more than 50,000 miles. I purchased my G from the original owner and he had a folder full of all the service work performed on the vehicle.
