Should I buy this Infiniti G35? Need some help from the Infiniti experts!!

Ok so someone's selling there 05 Infiniti G35 4 Dr with 109K for $7500 the only problem is the back door passenger side dont open, the passenger seat doesnt recline and there are some spots on the roof where the paint is coming off. I'm thinking of getting it for $6800 and how much will it take to fix these issues? I want to flip it, will that be possible? Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks guys.

Thats really cheap, all the problems are simple things you can fix your self, i've seen 03-04's going for 11k, 12k with way more miles 109 is really not that high, these cars last forever if you take good care of them, i say buy it before somebody else takes it...

I agree. 6800 is a fair price. Pretty cheap fixes if you are painting roof black or doing a wrap on it. I say go for it! Post before and after pics. I am curious why door won't open.

All easy fixes ... get some vinyl and hit the roof if your gonna sell it.. For that price you might as well keep it though

flipping cars is not as easy as some people think

I would make sure I have a buyer before I "invest" money into a car I could be sitting on for a few months.

i bought my G with 130k for 6900 bucks. i'm up to 150 now and had no problems. The motors in theses cars are pretty good, if you do your regular maintenance and don't drive it like its a race car you should be fine!

This is wrong place to ask this kind of questions. We buy G35 because we like them and we keep them. We like them and we put tens of $ K into them.
If you wanna get into car flipping business look for something like carflippingfornoobs.com.

I wouldn't buy it to flip it, I don't see you gaining very much from it. It can be tough for private sellers to get the kind of money the car is actually worth. The price sounds pretty fair though if you plan on fixing it up and keeping it for a while. Just my $.02

I would buy it to flip it if you think you can. at 6800 you would have somewhere in the neighborhood of 7500 into it before you start fixing the problems. If the car presents well to private buyers and seems to be well maintained and runs well, they will pay. I just sold my previous car at what retail was and that was private party...

It can be done and I would do it if I were you. If it runs and drives well, and has been maintained
