Hello all - looking to buy my first G35 and I am open to opinions... Its a 2004 with 28K miles on it and I've got the dealer down to about $18,900. Its been lowered and has custom exhaust and brakes and a few other tweaks. Here is the link to a pic of it. Let me know if you think its worth the asking price. -Thanks!

Low miles or not, I would pay no more then 15k. Also, aftermarket parts and low miles, you would think that person would have driven his car more to "show it off", I dont know. The history of the car is a little shady to me.

 

Finding a Twilight Blue '04 coupe with less than 30K miles on her clock is unusual and a great find! Those are OE brakes for a MT coupe that year, but still cool. If it has a clean CARFAX make them an offer of $16K....Gary

 

It's not all about low miles. Think of it this way - you put 50k miles on this car and you go to sell it and you will lose a ton of money. If you put 50k miles on a car that had 80k on it, you will have lost much less in depreciation and chances are that you won't have anything to repair and if you will, the price will be small compared to the hit in depreciation you'd take with the lower mileage car. These cars are very reliable so buying one with 80k miles is not an issue and I'm not just saying that because I own one because I'm not biased at all. I just saw a 2007 g35x with premium and tech, packages, 78k miles for under $18,000.

Sure, it would be nice if my car had a little lower miles (it has 100k) but If I had something with 70k or 80k it wouldn't bother me one bit.

If I were you, I would get the same car with 70-80k miles and it will save you a ton of money.

 

Good looking car - but 18,900 for an '04 isn't a good deal regardless of miles. You can find an '07 w/ 60K for that price if you look hard enough IMO.

 

i would be concerned about why it has low miles. was it sitting around for a few years? i once had a car that did so, and problems started creeping up out of nowhere. cars are not meant to sit around, if not driven weekly they start to deteriorate, regardless of mileage.

like Ejoe19 said, get a newer car with more miles. it'll be nicer, a little faster, and honestly will probably last longer.

 

Great advice folks - I see the logic. I have been wondering about the quality of the Infinity so its good to hear about the mileage. My jeep has 240k miles on it and except for dripping some oil runs great.
