Found My M After Nearly 3 Years of Searching

[DJPlayedYA]

I recently found my "new" 2007 Infiniti M35 Sport after nearly 3 years of searching! To be fair though, I was pretty specific on what I was looking for...a 2007 Infiniti M35/45 (preferably 45) Sport with black exterior and bourbon interior with the Aero Package. I REALLY wanted the Advanced Tech Package too but I was pretty much out of luck in terms of actually locating one. I also wanted a clean Carfax, a southern-state registered car (no rust), and 1 or 2 owners with relatively low miles (under 80k). So yeah, basically in 3 years of searching, I found one "perfect" 07 M45 with almost everything I wanted, but then I Carfaxed it and found out the previous owner ran over road debris which cracked the oil pan, had it repaired, then immediately sold it. That threw up a huge red flag so I backed out of that sale.

I was on the verge of purchasing another 07 M45 Sport that had been modified heavily, but rather nicely (I posted pics on this forum asking if it were anybody's on here), but the day before doing so I saw a listing on one of our local insurance auctions for a 2007 Infiniti M35 Sport with only 37k miles!! Yes, it had been in a rear end accident but after taking our mechanic out to survey the damages, it was a very easy repair for us. The repair estimate through Liberty Mutual was over $13,000 but we ended up repairing it for a measly $775.

So now I finally found the 2007 Infiniti M35 Sport Black w/ Bourbon that I've been looking for...the wait was worth it

Mods already done or waiting to be installed so far:

- Front and Rear Sarona Aero Kit (decent quality and fit, I would recommend them if you are looking for the impossible to find OE kit)
- OE Aero Kit Side Skirts - swapped them from another M45 that we had
- Blackhart Brake Kit - all 4 pads and rotors
- Ebay Roof Spoiler - waiting to be installed
- US Spec iPod Adapter - waiting to be installed
- Megan Racing Exhaust System - have midpipes waiting to be installed, waiting on axle backs to ship, and am contemplating on which if any y-pipe to get

Mods I plan on doing as soon as I have the time!

- All 4 wheels to be powder coated in some sort of metal color or gloss black (haven't decided yet)
- New set of Michelin Pilot Super Sport Tires
- Calipers painted (either orange or yellow I think...)
- Philips Ultinon HID bulbs and 3k HID foglights
- Some sort of sound system upgrade (this 8 speaker Bose system is complete and utter garbage)
- 3M Crystalline Window Tint - either 70% all around including windshield or 70% up front and 40% in the rears







Edit: These pics were taken before I installed the Blackhart Brake Kit and rear Sarona diffuser

I LOVE those rims too. I have to find them for my car!!

very clean! Great find...

You mentioned about wanting the wheels being powder coated another color, I re-did my sport wheels as semi-gloss Anthracite with matte black bolts and center caps. Also regarding your inquiry of which Ypipe to go (on another thread), maybe just drive around and get used to the Megan mids and axle backs - if the sound is good enough for you, then leave as is.... BUT, if you want to open the car up a little more, then upgrade the ypipe
