Long story short I got into a car wreck with my 08 altima coupe and am now looking for a replacement.

After searching on the internet etc... I have found 3 g35 coupes that I am interested in.

06 automatic silver with black interior 13k miles not very many options... dealer willing to sell for 25k for everything tax title license etc.

06 automatic blue with tan interior 26k miles... Has more options than above, intelli key, bose audio, homelink, bluetooth etc... Havent really talked to dealer, but can probably get deal like above or better as I have bought a car from this dealer before...

lastly 05 6spd manual silver with grey interior 25k miles... has bose audio, homelink etc... Haven't talked to this dealer at all yet.

Right now I am leaning towards the first car as it is in the color combination that I like and has very low miles. My reservations against the second one is the tan interior, and the higher miles, I like the options though, especially intelli key. Reservations against the last one is that it is an 05, reason why I got an auto on my previous car is because I got tired of driving a manual, also the 19" rims and performance wheels prob wont do good in winter where I live. Also it being a manual, not sure how previous driver drove car...

Sorry if I'm not much help. But you said you like the color of the first and it has low miles. Also it's an auto, BTW is still fun to drive.

If you are a gadget man then go with the second choice.

I like the first choice personaly. Nice color and low mileage. Anyway weigh your wants and needs and don't settle. These cars are very fun to drive and you will fall in love with RWD power.

all G'd up

I wouldn't settle for anything but a 6MT, but if you want an auto, the first choice sounds like a good deal.

Transmission is all preference. Fun can be had with either set up.

Yeah it sounds like the first one is the way to go. Even in stripper form the G's are pretty well equipped. You don't really need the homelink, and most people complain about the BOSE. Save some money and go with the first choice then spend all the rest on delicious go fast mods

I would get the 05... 6mt and has all the options + it is the same car so it will be cheaper!

The 6mt's did come with Intel key so that is the only option that would be missing...

The Black INT is nice but very dark... I like the Grey.. All the dash is black and the seats and doors are back and silver.

That is my .02 lol

Good luck

and welcome to the family...

Oh once you own a G... well you will think that nissan you had was... well... a POS

I think you should get whichever one makes you happy, but the 06 automatic blue one sounds like a deal to me
