Looking to buy a g35 coupe.

[Nazc0]

I found a good one in my area in red and black leather interior 47k miles and $13.5k its an automatic(needs to be because my mom will drive it sometimes)and i had some questions that i would like answered before i hop in the car.

1. How much room is there for the driver? I fit(just) in an Old E36 Bmw m3 but i don't fit in my friends Hyundai Santa Fe Suv.2. Is there any rear leg room if the seat is all the way back? I am looking for a car that's kind of practical (as this is a coupe Im not expecting a park bench)3. MPG I know it says 25 but that always at the best conditions but what dou people actualy get while driving around in the city?

These are some of my questions, the rest ill know when i test drive the car.

Thank You.

here are some pics of the car from person selling it

If i were you i would do a autochex or carfax report on it before buying anything from a private seller...it took me 3 g35 carfax reports before finding a good one....if you dont have an account get me the VIN and i will do one for you i still have an active account..that way u dont have to pay for it......me personally i would never buy from a private seller. i've seen someone selling one that was salvaged three times in a year and a half. But the red coupe with black interior is nice (you lose cool points for automatic though lol)

what year is it?

Front Headroom (in.) 39.2Rear Headroom (in.) 34.7Front Legroom (in.) 43.8Rear Legroom (in.) 31.4Front Shoulder Room (in.) 53.7Rear Shoulder Room (in.) 52.7Front Hip Room (in.) 53.6Rear Hip Room (in.) 48

I havent actually drove mine yet cuz im still deployed but from what i read it has more legroom than any vehicle i ever drove including (2005 chevy equinox, 2004 chevy blazer, 2008 mitsubishi galant ralliart, 2007 mitsubishi raider, 2005 chevy cobalt and 1999 nissan altima). as far as gas mpg it says 18 city/25 highway but ive seen people saying they've gotten as high as 27 mpg and as low as 21 mpg.

it was salvaged but he says its was a minor hit on the rear fender from previous ownrim going to put it through a PPI before i would buy iti cant find any other ones in my area exept for sedans i bought carfax once and it saved my ***jnkcv54e13m226335if there was no frame damage then i dont think theres much cause for alarmlike i said ppi inspectin first

this is what i got from his emailQuote »the frame damage was minimal to non existant i believe. the previous owner said the car was hit on the rear fender and it has been fixed properly and my dad told me he had it inspected before we bought the car 4 months ago.electrical problems.... would be only the spoiler light. a few of the lights arent working on the spoiler but this car does have 4 brake lights and ive considered just unwiring the spoilers lights altogether.warning lights work properly and none of them are on. ive only seen them on when the slip/vcd warns me that i lost traction[/quote]http://sfbay.craigslist.org/sf....html

clean car and stuff but i dont think you should go with an 03 they were the g35s rookie year i would say at least get an 05....but thats your decision and just my 2 cents
