For me it's hard not to get that itch after about 8 years. I know it makes sense to run it into the ground, but to hell with sense.

As soon as it hits 75,000 miles, i'm going to get a Infiniti M. But since I only drive about 1000 miles a month, that will be about 3.5 years away!

wats wrong with 100K miles on a car? if the car is in great condition, works fine etc...then wats the problem? its not like when it its 100k it ganna blow up or anything.

i think a better question(s) would be "am i happy with my G in current state?" and/or "what other car(s) would i want right now?"

if u really wanna see the condition of ur g35 engine wise, do a compression test, its SUPER easy and it will truly tell u the condition of ur engine. flush ur trans and ur set, keep up with your regular maintenance and it should be fine.

Keep it and save your money until you need to move or want to because you no longer have that feeling with the present girl.

Dont really want to drive a car with that many miles because, no warranty, and things start to go. Plus i have already had it for awhile and im gonna be bored with it and ready for somthing new.
