whats considered high mileage?
ive been looking for a g35 for several months now, and now i found the perfect one but it has 100,000 miles. it seems a bit high, but how much longer would you say it will last??

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!

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.
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(

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.
