Hey guys,

My name is Andrew. Just scooped up a 2003 IP G35 AT. Not sure what version it is, but it has the 17 inch rims and black housing headlights. Got it for $5,000!!! Been loving it, but it already has its share of problems.

It's been in the dealership for the last week now because of a radio/AC malfunction. First they said it was the circuit board, then it messed up again and now they want to refurbish the radio unit. It's going to cost $575.

Other than that, love the power, love the clean look. Loving the car in general.

Look forward to talking to you guys more and learning more about my new toy!DOMO

 

welcome to driver...sounds like you got a pretty good deal even with the minor probs...post up some pics whenever possible!!

 

5k dang.

 

Yeah, my dad was getting tired of it so I offered up $5,000 and he took it! He was tired of it anyways and didn't want to bother with getting the radio/AC/passenger window fixed. But I should be getting the car back tomorrow or the day after!! Been driving around in an EX35, which is pretty nice. Nice gauges, nice dash system, but the G is just much more fun to drive.

Car was always garage kept and he doesn't speed so the car is in pretttttty good condition. The paint actually looks like new. Pretty good for a six year old car.

Planning on buying 18 inch rims from my friends 2004 G35. He just got some 20s. I need to find a place nearby that will chrome dip them.

 

dont waste the money on oem 18's..save up for a nice set of wheels with an aggressive offset...id lean tword 19's with a nice drop..just an opinion

 

$5k??
how many miles?!?

anyways
congrats

 

Man, I wish my dad had a nice car I could "take off his hands" for 5K

I am jealous!

 

Lucky man and please dont dip the 18s in chrome thats a terrible idea and they look horrible on our cars. Atleast go with the 19inch rays. You got a good deal on the car now spend some money and make the car look nice.

 

If you look around you can pick up some used 19" rays for pretty cheap

 

5k wow most people spent 3-7 times that! Good for you and welcome

Yes just get some 19"s and I think it would be less then getting yours chomed imo.

 

Thanks for the welcome guys.

The car had 74500 miles when i got it. 4 days of driving and I popped 550 miles on it. lol.

But yeah, I'll take your guys advice and start looking for 19s. Which 19" rays would look best? And should I go for 20s like my friend?

If this would best be answered by a search, let me know. I don't want to start off bad on this site. lol.

 

Welcome to 'Driver. Congrats on getting a great deal.

 

welcome to driver..GL with future mods!! enjoy

 

congrats and welcome

 

Congrats, and its cool to have p's who hook ya up like that. You didnt get it handed to you, you actually had to pay for it, so I give your pops big time props for that. Makes you appreciate it more.

Anyway, yea I would do a search. But, the Rays that everyone is talking about are the stock mesh looking ones like the ones on my car in my garage.

Welcome to the fam!
