hey guys,
new here.
just found one 08 journey base with 65k miles for about 20 grands.
is the mileage too much?

i want to add an aftermarket backup camera. is it difficult to do?

thanks!

65k miles is a bit high for $20k. I have 59.7k miles journey base awd trade in at 16-17 k or maybe lower.

unfortunitely, im in the white north. car price is much higher up here... and its from a stealership...

what major repairs should i expect soon? can i buy an extended warranty?

Since this car was brand new in 2008, nobody here has had one long enough to tell you what to expect. It's basically the same engine and transmission from the G35/G35x so you might find some answers to that question in those forums. Mine has been pretty reliable other than a faulty fuel meter sensor.

my buddy told me any car closed to 65k is expecting a lot if repairs... kinda fears me. never had an infiniti/nissan before..

Waaaaay to much for a base with those miles...

forgot to mention that the 20K is OTD price incl..tax, lic,etc..
here tax is 13% even u do private sale..grrrrr

[kingfrog]

Ouch..Tax is capped here at $300 regardless of what you buy, Boat Plane Maybach...LOL But we pay a property tax on those registered items ever year, It goes down each year. I think it will be about $120 on the Infiniti next year, That is the reason I don't trade in cars. There is no tax advantage like some states. Easier to sell for far less than dealers on the street.

Are u in SC? I SO want to move there!

So for that car, I can still keep it for another 2-3 yrs with normal driving and good maintenance?

Things I've had go wrong...

1) faulty lane change camera, got a new one installed.
2) vibration, due to s*** Dunflop tyres, bought Michelins.
3) warped rotors, shimmy in steering wheel. TSB for this.

Other people have had issues with a leaky sun-roof, but I haven't.

tires intentionally spelt as tyres, because I didn't want a link to eBay in my post.
