Just bought a used salesmans car off of my work. Its a 2011 G37xS with 109,000 miles dealer maintained with Nav and it got it for $4500. Probably the deal of the century. I went all over it and the only thing other than normal nicked paint and interior wear is fluid residue out of the seal on the passanger side half shaft where it goes into the rear differental and some more fluid residue on the driver side of the power steering rack torwards the rear around the nut under the hydraulic line hookup. I figure not a bad deal even if i have some work to do in the future. Also it has the original battery which i will probablt have to replace soon. My good friend has a 2009 Fx which has been a good car for him so i took a chance. This is my first nissan/infiniti product so i have alot to learn.

Welcome. While that's a lot of miles for the year, it's still a good deal. Most modern cars now should hit 200k easily with simple maintenance.

Its a base. The car is definately more capable than I am. A Z06 would probably get me killed. I had a C4 before that and then skipped the C5 and went to the C6. That was a big leap.

ya def. i had a c5 and my father-in-law just picked up a 2014 c7 LT2. that thing is a beast. but as long as you keep the traction control on it will stay in a straight line. i have no idea how anyone can drive that car to its full capability.

IDK, I've thrown the rear end from one side to the other side from dead stop launch turns on the C6, but the traction control does an excellent job of bringing it back in and keeping it there. Definitely a beast of a car!

I agree, not sure how a non-professional racer can come even close to the full capability. The Corvettes have come a long ways, thankfully!
