Hello all, newbie to the board here --- a seemingly great board it is ! I have been looking off and on at the latest model Q45 and have finally found one that fits my fancy. It is a 2003 Q45 Premium, 18" wheels, 18,000 miles, Intelligent Cruise control, heated/cooled seats, everything --- and I mean everything.
The color is exactly what I want (Pearl White) with the beige interior. One funny thing is that the floor mats (in the trunk) appear VERY USED ---- do you think that is of a major concern ? The 2003 Q is at a dealer in Maryland, I am in DC.
My current 1997 Q45 has 83,000 miles, all dealer serviced since new and is impeccable, garage kept, always "parked smart", i.e., no dings and is flawless. Pearl Ivory with the beige (I'm partial to this).
I've been reading about oil consumption fears with the new Q45 --- should that be of major concern for or simply a TSB matter ? I am in the DC region and have a good relationship with Passport Infiniti (rocky at the start, now "good").
Also, I am going to have to trade my current Q in as I do not have the time (or additional parking space) to keep it. Any recommendations of how to bring the best $$$s ? The asking price is mid - high 30s (sounds good to me) and I hope to get between 9k and 10k for mine.
All comments will be greatly appreciated.
Btw, I am a loyal Infiniti owner since 1992, my old M30 went 260,000 miles before donating her.
Thanks again.
