Ok, I made an appointment for ppi next Monday. If the deal go through, I'll post pictures of my new ride here. I'm going to offer $20000 for the car if ppi turns out good.
What do you think guys? 2008 g35s 6mt 49k miles premium package. The dealer offers $22950 for it.

I paid $21,950 for a 2007 G35s 6mt with 48k miles about 2 months ago. Sounds about right.

Not much to add here, except that I just bought the same car and am glad that the odd clunk and noise are not abnormal on these cars. I expected the shifter vibration, have owned two Nissans in the past and both have done the same thing.

Sorry my mistake, it was $20,950 before any tax, license, smog etc. I also purchased an extended warranty and i don't recall the total with everything included.

PPI is a PRE purchase inspection not a POST purchase inspection. Best $150 you can spend.

Good info here from my neighbor, who is a Porsche mechanic.

Pay special attention to the paint meter info - ask to use theirs from the body shop.

I bought mine sight unseen...asked them to take it to an Infiniti stealership....called the stealership for a report....then did a fly and buy. Had there been a discrepancy I would have bailed.

Can you find another 6MT G35s in your area? Test drive another one and judge.

Thank you for the advice.

When I had mine built in '07, they told me 6MT's accounted for just under 5% of all G sedans.

the S is definitely tougher to find. i looked for a long time to find the platinum silver....there is an S listed here http://edmonton.kijiji.ca/c-cars-veh...AdIdZ342158502
as far as I've found the csc is the weak link on these cars, good luck
