Does anybody have any info on this g35?

Alright so I'm interested in buying a g35 and I've been searching high and low for a 2005 or newer manual sedan. I happened upon this g:

http://www.bladechevy.com/VehicleDet...-WA/2768775173

Which seems like a good deal. However I live across the country in michigan so I don't really have the ability to check out its condition in person. So my question is, does anyone here have any knowledge of this car? Or does anyone live close enough that they would be willing to check it out for me?

I know it's a long shot but any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks
Tyler

A few red flags come up for me when I read the whole ad. First of all they state the book value is $11499 but NADA lists it at $9900. Second the ad states the interior color as Graphite (black) when it's clearly the tan which was called Wheat in 03-04, not sure the exact name in the 05-06. Third they mention the trunk release button on rear fascia which was a feature on the Intelligent Key option which this car clearly doesn't have based on the photo towards the end of the pics that shows the key in the ignition. Fourth under specifications the list an extensive array of features but at the bottom of the pages in tiny print there is this sentence: "The features and options listed are for a New 2006 Infiniti G35 Sedan 6MT Sedan and may not apply to this specific vehicle."

All little complaints I know but I'm **** about cars and all of the little inconsistencies make me nervous they're a little shady. HTH.........

Hmmm, yeah that does seem a bit strange. Thanks for the input. I'll probably just have to wait until something pops up closer to me.

I have the trunk release button, but no intelligent key on my 05.

Tan was "willow" in 03/4 and wheat after that. Haha..just had to make that correction.

The trunk release button is right under the driver side tail light in pics 19 and 20. You have to unlock all the doors, then you can push that button to pop the trunk. It's not an Intelligent Key option car. I have the same car, minus trunk spoiler (if that's a minus?) and plus Bose (if that's a plus?).

Tyler, I bought the car you were probably looking for last month on June 14th, here in the metro Detroit MI suburbs only a couple miles from my house!! It was listed on Autotrader and a couple other sites. Its a very clean 2005 OB G35 Sedan 6MT, 111K miles, tight clutch, good brakes/tires, carfax/service history records, etc I got the car for $6500 !!! and it was the only 2005-2006 Sedan 6MT available that I found in Michigan at the time online. I didn't realize how rare these 6MT sedan cars are nowadays until after I bought it.


Good luck with your search and purchase!
