Picking up an '08 G37s coupe- manual 6 speed with premium, nav packages, and new oem Bridgestones Potenzas- pretty much has everything except the tech package. Car has 23k miles. Purchasing from an Infiniti dealer, so all fluids, filters, etc. have been replaced. This is my first Infiniti. Anything I should be aware of (quirks, nav shortcuts that only come with time, etc.) besides enjoying the ride?

Welcome to NICO. Search around here and you'll find tips and quirks. But definitely enjoy the ride! Sounds like a great car, especially with the new Potenzas.

I had a 08 G37 Journey. In almost three years it was stone dead reliable and a whole lot of fun to drive. The only thing I can call a quirk is that the 3.7 engine(as opposed to the 3.5 which I had also) will sound like a hailstorm on a tin roof on cold start especially if you start it inside a garage. Don't worry it is just the nature of the beast. Nothing is coming apart. Enjoy! :dblthumb:

Sounds good! Low miles!!
Make sure to check carfax and all body panels for damage.
Trust no one on the deal esp. the dealership.
Most of the work you can do your self on your car, just keep all receipts and document date/mileage/work done.
If you do need to have something done at a dealership, most of the time Nissan will be cheaper than Infiniti.
Congrats and Pics!!!!! :yesnod

Welcome to NICO. Below is a hidden screen which really does little but is interesting to know about.

That's all I have at the moment. If you find anything else or others want to post them here I can document them and host'em up.
