Agreed on parting the aftermarket stuff and throwing stock back on it. You can probably get $1500 for the wheels/tires alone, and another $700-1000 from the performance mods. Plus, a stock car will be more marketable to a larger portion of the population. I wouldn't go any lower than $12.5 though. That's a steal around these parts. Most G's in this area with that mileage and features go for $14k ++ here.

Your car payment cant be that much if all you owe is around 13-14k. I was able to afford a 36k car and party hard every weekend.
Trust me man, the one thing I regret is not being frugal about my money when I was in. I wasted tens of thousands of dollars on cars(turbo kit)
BTW, been to Yuma more times than I can count, hate that place!

zomg man!! You have been in for 3 and half years and your a PFC, someone has been making some real poor decisions.
If you plan to get out, and the situation your in, the civilian world is going to hit you real hard. If I was you I would start saving at least 20k from now until you get out. If your looking to dump the G for a 4-5k beater car, then that's a good choice as long as you find something reliable. Your in no shape to get a "newer" G35 if you sell this one.
I may not know know you, but I know plenty of guys like you that run into financial woes. Lucky for myself I was able to come up with a decent plan in the last year I was in.
Dont be another american statistic and over extend yourself or in other words living outside your means.
Since you been busted down a few times, im guessing at least 2 times. You might get hit with a bad re-enlistment code if your thinking about staying in. That means no future in the military

No no no I said poor choices WHEN I was pfc haha I am a lance though, my mos doesn't promote anymore phasing us out combined two into one, promoted anyone with a score, now it's backed up you know the drill, anywho shot RR last week hit 336 bumped me to number one on the list in MOL for scores the next quarter anyways me and my wife have an outstanding budget that we follow rigorously but I appreciate the concern a lot! I'm not just another one of those marines you were talking about, pro cons are 4.8 4.7 283 pft 300 cft, how long ago did you get out? What was the reasoning with you being in yuma stationed or wti stuff?

I got out 2 years ago and I went to Yuma sometimes twice a year for every year I was in for WTI.

Nice, wti sucks though I had to do it for a week while our boot was on leave and literally wore a glow strap and walked around the barracks for 12 on 12 off lol. But it's awesome hearing that your doing so well an taking care of business other than the ones that just get out throw everything down the drain!!
