Hey people,

I was just curious if the Ex-Owner is on this forum, so I can ask him/her a few questions about the car.

Please let me know, I'm very interested in buying the car, I just don't believe anything dealers say, so I want to know cars history from the Ex-Owner him/her self

Thanks a lot people,

 

^ That's like trying to find a needle in a haystack without more info.

If you did a carfax or autocheck on the g35, you could kinda see the chain of ownership/location and from there try to find the owner on here.....

 

carfax FTW

 

pnn23, I understand man.....but Carfax doesn't tell you if the car need a clutch replacement, if the tranny is f'ed up, if control arms are done, if all fluids are up to date, etc.....so I just though if I create this thread, maybe I'll get lucky and stumble upon the Ex-Owner and see why he got rite of such a great machine.

This is the dealership that is selling it:

Empire Motors
1-888-580-7847
5566 Holt Blvd.
Montclair, CA 91763

 

^ Understood Reso, but when I pull up autocheck for my G35, it shows when it was put into service, the location of the first owner, and when I bought it, with mileage specifics. Also, sometimes it shows if the car was sold from an auction or not. If you could see the locations, you could ask for help in one of the regional subforums?


Though you won't get alot of the mechanical specifics from carfax/autocheck that you're looking for until you speak to the previous owner....to get to the owner you have to provide as much info as possible about the G35. Mileage, more pics, what options are on it, etc. - as much detail as possible.


Regardless of whether or not you find the previous owner, I'd also definitely get the car checked by a mechanic (Infiniti dealership or car inspection services). Hell, they might be a better source than a previous owner if said owner knew jack except for how to start the G35 with the keyless fob



Good luck, it's worth a shot to ask around here, but Driver isn't the only G35 forum on the internets.....

 

I definitely agree man.......I will most definitely do more research, and I will take the car in for full inspection by Infiniti dealership before signing anything. Thanks a lot for your feedback man.

 

hey there are a lot of people i knw who got there car from empire motors and have never had any problems with them the people who always install there wheels are 909 dezign i knw the owner from 909 and he always recommends empire rather then those other dealers on holt and couple my friends got there rides from empire never had problems there bt i got mine at st. georges across the street bt dnt recommend them bad experience there!!

 

^ cool man, thanks.......ill keep that in mind

 

Does anyone have the unlimited car history check for AutoCheck.com........I can pay you $5 or $10 if you check a vehicle history for me and email me the results?
I can send you the VIN of the car.

It would be much appreciated

 

The dealership should provide that if they are reputable ..

 

Dealer does have the Carfax report. But Carfax shows 6 records, while Autocheck.com shows 11 records........but it doesn't matter, I want that car hehe, its exactly what I was looking for. I just hope that it doesn't sell before I go get it.

All the money I would have spent on research and check-ups, I can just use it towards fixing what ever can be wrong with a 43k mile nissan, usually, not a thing! (through out my experience)

Thanks everyone for your input and suggestions

 

hey pm me i can go take a look at it if u want live about 4 blocks away from empire

 

I was looking at this car the other day. How much are you planning to talk to dealer down to? Good luck.

 

no good sedans in utah?

 

@ 626Gthirtyfive
I offered 14k of the door, since I'm pretty sure the car is not mint and it would need maintenance and fixing. But I just found out, oscar_g-sedan06 pm'd me, that it was sold yesterday for 16.5, and that it was not in good shape inside or out. So I'm glad I didn't rush into it.

@ 2004v35
There is good sedans man, but 70% are AWD because of snow in Utah, and the other 30% are AT hehehe. I went to the infiniti dealer the other day, they had 1 sedan with RWD AT, everything else was AWD hehe.
I'm looking for 6MT, because its just more fun driving manual.
