Purchasing a 2005 G35 6MT possibly this weekend. Any concerns or advice as I am new to learning about them and don’t know much about VQs or what to watch out for with the ownership. This G I am looking at has 100k miles, garage kept and extremely up kept with oil changes and maintenance.

 

Inform the seller that you would like to have the vehicle inspected by a local Infiniti dealer prior to purchase.. Any defects uncovered can be used to lower the purchase price

 

Dude...nobody really does that. And no seller would agree to that because its such a waste of time for a car thats only worth about 5K.

 

caveat emptor

 

Huh? You serious? No one has ever said no to me on that, and I'd never buy a used car without it. That's walkaway stuff.

 

I bought my 05 G35 Coupe in Nov 2017 and I can honestly say I didn't do enough research....
don't get me wrong I love my G and I'm happy I got one, but there are some common issues you definitely need to be aware of...

best advice I can give you is do searchs on google and youtube for "buying 2005 infiniti g35"
and if you have access to an OBD2 reader take it along with you and read the codes some of the fixes can expensive especially if you don't do the work yourself...

good luck - I hope it works out for you
