So i put the car up on autotrader.com selling for $18250 since the market for coupes have been going up and 18250 is the cheapest car in the 300 mile radius from us. i bought the car for $16500 and found a buyer willing to pay $17000 for the car. So yay. I'm not really at a loss. i dunno if i could actually get more than $17k tho since the car does have cracked bumper and accident on record but yea.

But I'm definitely sticking with the g35 coupe just with less miles. search begins once again.

 

sold the car with the accident and high miles and cracked bumper for $17k.. now i'm out looking for the same car with a clean record and lower miles. started looking only at all 06 obsidian black coupes. got them in order from closest to farthest from me (oklahoma)

Smart move

 

definitely happier now.. unfortunately i could not find a single black coupe that i absolutely loved (some had suspension problems, others were dinged up or scratched beyond what I would want to fix) then i found my dream car... so i just put down $23k for an 07 blue g35 coupe with 32+k miles. premium alloy wheels, new tires, stock nav system, AT, sat radio, no accidents, one owner before me. just yay!

whats fun was the drive from dallas back up to OKC and into my parking lot rolled my odometer exactly onto 33,000 miles. EXACT! it made me smile.

side note, i love driving down to DFW area.. because you can never just see one g35, it sorta becomes a conga line on the highway of g's following each other. hell, i had some dude get on my ***. i was gonna flick him off then i realized he was another g35 owner. so i was like woo!
