The Colors I want are so damn Rare!

I have kinda began shopping around for Gs now and am finding it semi difficult. I do a nation wide search because I want to find exactly what I want.

What I want:
Sport Package 6mt 07-08
Navigation

Colors I am looking for, Ivory Pearl (number 1) and the either a Serengeti Sands or Platinum Graphite.

I found (what seems like a unicorn to me) a 07 serengeti sands 6spd sedan, black interior with nav. Only one I have ever seen like it. Love the car.

Those colors are damn near impossible to find I am seeing, atleast in a 6spd.

Theres a million friggen black 07-08s, but very little in those other colors.

I am wondering if I should just have my dealer hunt one for me at an Infiniti auction or something.

Any recommendations? I am looking for a CPO with 40k and under miles. Price under 26k.

Help me driver lol

Autotrader a total of 5 in a nationwide search for IP. But yeah, that's a lot of criteria lol.

I talked to the dealer already, but don't want to make them do anything since I won't be ready to purchase anything until later in the spring.

Just going to hope something pops up.

I really am not too picky, just as long as the car isn't black or a base model I am good to go. I also don't think I could rock a red car, and silver doesn't pop enough for me after a coat of wax to want me to get it lol

Any particular reason it has to be CPO? That first one in the link looked good.

Because I want THE best possible car I can get for the money. IE: The cars Infiniti WANTS to buy at auction. The one's they reject are the ones that these little independent dealers wind up with.

I made a mistake with my current car (bought an ex-rental base model from enterprise...) and don't really want to go down that same path again. That and If i'm spending 25k on a car, i'd like it to be the best it possibly can.

EDIT: And that white one has been on there since the beginning of summer. There must be something wrong with it if it hasn't sold yet at that price.

You never know til you check it out, but that's a ways for you to travel just to look at a car. I got mine at an independent dealer, no problems yet.

I understand wanting to get the most out of your money and not wanting any problems lol.

And my logic is, since it's a Florida car, people tend to shy away from dark interiors since it's so hot in the summers and it's not fun getting into an extremely hot car after sitting in the sun. That's why I got the willow interior on mine instead of black since I had the option of the two.

You'r interior is wheat lol not willow. Willow was the tan in the 03-04s.

And If the car is still there in a couple months, i'll check it out, but i'd really like a car that was certified by an infiniti tech. I'll have to have some inspections done.

I would say IP or PG, but not SS.

My neighbor has an SS sedan, and he's an older gent. To me, that color doesn't suit younger people at all

Have you considered CarMax? There's one in Houston that would fit your criteria for the most part, except it has 46k miles. But yes, PG(blk interior)/Prem/6spd/Tech/Nav. I was looking at trading mine in (same, more miles, but 5AT) but decided to forgo it for a while. It was still listed as of last night.

p.s. Before i got the G, i had wheat or light gray interiors on all other prior vehicles. That was after i really despised having a black interior on my first ever car. However, on the G, having black interior actually isn't bad. The car cools down plenty fast -- and the car sits out in hot Texas sun all day at work.

We can't get an Ivory White with black interior her in Canada....That's what I wanted.
The only option we get is the sand interior....that's what I have.
Dirt shows up more on the sand than black.
