Thumbs up Today I worked on a 06 G35 with 250 THOUSAND miles!

I'm a part time detailer and this guy came to get his car waxed. It was a black 06 AT. Typical highway wear, lots of nicks in the paint towards the front bumper, the bumper fading out to dark gray almost. But overall clean and well maintained.

I told him I was getting one soon and I asked him if he had done any major repairs, etc... He said nothing besides oil changes and tune ups. He put in synthetic oil every 6,000 miles and just drove the **** out of it.

He said: "The best car I've ever owned, go for it."

less than 6 years 250k miles, I can't even begin to imagine how much driving they must do on a daily basis... even when my g was a daily I didn't even put more than 7k-10k miles on it/year.

See this is something I've known all along, our Infiniti/Nissans do last and hold up. If you'll notice it was an '06 5AT not a REVUP motor....

If it's a Coupe, this guy has deep pockets for the cost of tires!

that type of mileage hints at highway driving, highway driving is not that hard on tires. So I bet he can squeeze 50-70k out of good all seasons, which I assume he is running. 30-40k on summers

Yes this was a coupe indeed. More reason to get me a non rev up 6mt for the longevity of the engine since I do beat my cars up (engine wise )

Oh yea and what's the engine code for the non revup models? I wanna look up specs.
