What model and package does this have?

So im new to this g35 forum and i was looking to purchase a used 2003 g35 sedan, and i was just wondering if you guys could tell me what kind of packages this car includes. I am going to take a look at the car tomorrow evening so any help would be much appreciated before hand.

Here is the link for the pictures: http://jabaay.motorphotos.net/webtem...px?iid=2838678

Also if anyone could give me any tips and things to look out for when im taking a look at the car to see if its been abused or any common problems that have not been fixed already any help at all would be much appreciated as i am new to nissan/infiniti (have been a honda guy my whole life lol)

Sports package and premium package
This is year 2003 not the 2003.5 (difference is the trunk doggy doors)

Also, this car has clear cut corners already. You know what that means, this car has been abused (lol jk)

doggy doors are when it has the handle in the middle off the trunk. It pretty much looks like a doggy door thus the name.

It has the sports pkg for sure.
Not 100% sure about the premium package though. I notice it doesn't have a dual zone a/c or auto-down on the rear windows.
For A/T models, a dead give-away for the premium package is a/c vents on the back of the center console armrest.

Also, Doggy Doors are easy to spot... they look like mine



Besides the clear corners, the car also has aftermarket headlights.

A few things you should be aware of, the finish on the driver's side door pull looks to be heavily deteriorated. I have a DIY on refinishing them in a very nice, professional looking matte black finish.
Also, problems with the radio/cd changer/ac controls are very common in early G's

I don't know if you plan on doing performance mods later on, but the very very early G's (doggy doors, aka 2003.0) have very limited options for tuning the ecm.

@NFSP g35 thanks alot for the info i really appreciate it well i couldnt take a look at the car today cuz the car wasnt on the lot. Also im not really looking to heavily mod the engine just little basic stuff one thing i was looking at was that the stock plenum was very restrictive so probably a new and better plenum, exhaust, headers, and possibly some more stuff but not any time soon so nothing too major. so what do you guys think about the car in general good deal something i should hop on ASAP?

Plenum and full exhaust are slightly more than just "basic" and it will take a tune to really see the most good from those mods.

How much are they asking?
--edit. Just saw $9900

That's a little high for a car right at 100,000

I got my 2003.0 with 99k mi in 02/09 for 9300 OUT THE DOOR (incl tax, tag, fees, whatever)
I think you should be able to do a little better for almost exactly the same car.

Granted, this one is slightly newer (half year model) and has the sport package, but that shouldn't make much of a difference. Especially considering that it's now a year and a half since I've bought mine.

9,990 checked the car fax only 1 previous owners clear title and everything

and a tune for that car would be kind of hard because of the 03 ECU right?

^Yes.

The best tuning solution for our cars is made by Osiris.
Unfortunately, they don't make anything for the old ECU (only 03.5 and up, with the newer ecu)

You can still get a reflash from technosquare, but you have to send it off.

your definitely over paying for it. I bought an 03 in feb of 2010 with 49,000 miles w/ heated seats, leather, etc. Super clean for $12,000. And got a warranty on top fo that.
