My car's over 126K now, and it still runs perfect, but the previous (only) owner was very meticulous with it.

All I can say is check it over very toughly, but if everything checks out then sure, why not?
Just put away the extra money you're not spending on a bigger payment in order to cover any weird stuff that does come up.
Also, I'll bet you could get them down to 6 with little if any trouble. Act like the mileage is a big deal and you don't want to "dump a bunch of money into a car with that many miles"
Even though it's likely to have plenty of life left in it

I just bought an 03 with 181k miles and everything checked out perfectly. Onmy thing was an oil cooler line o-ring and the seal for the shifter.

I ended up buying an 03 g35 sedan with 103k miles for $8,000. After it was inspected by an infiniti tech, It needs about $1000 in repairs but I can cut that in half.

I think I got a fair deal...

Thanks fellas.

First thing I need to do is get rid of the hideous rims it came in. OEM 19's, full Z suspension, Nismo front, and maybe some Coupe Brembo's... and THAT'S IT. I'm not spending 5 figures like I did on my Coupe.

If you get the Nismo front you'll need to at least color match your side/rear lowers (or better yet get Nismo sides and an Ionic rep Nismo rear). I'm just sayin....

Hah, but I learned from my Coupe. And there's a reason I got a Sedan... for convenience and practicality. My Coupe was driving me nuts as a daily driver with the modifications I had.

I will have my sports car in the future. For now, I just want to give this sedan a clean subtle OEM look.

Glad it worked out for you. Since those reading this thread likely have higher-mileage cars, do you mind sharing what the tech found that needed to be addressed? Thanks.

Heh, I'd be surprised if you could "only" cut that in half

Fuel pressure regular needs to be changed (clicking noises). One of the bearings is making some noise. One shock is leaking. Front driver window doesn't work.

I'm a DIY guy so I can do all of those myself, though I've never attempted about half of those fixes before.
