M35x Purchasing Decision ?

[crazychristopheo]

Hello All !

I am recently new to this forum and I have a few questions pertaining to my soon to come purchase of an M35x

I am in the USAF and I must travel long distances across country in all environments. I prefer an awd vehicle, and my family has always had the best luck with Nissan.

I have a limited budget of 25k and was wondering what I should look for when purchasing an m35x ?

I know quite a bit pertaining to power trains and drive trains. Any guidance would be Greatly appreciated !

If this is not the correct sub category to post in please do correct me !

Also what sort of gas mileage does one get in an m35x ?

I am also one to modify my vehicle so any good websites to point me in the right direction for proper mods would be great, for I am aware there are many 3.5 v6 performance parts !

Welcome to the forums . Great questions to ask, but I'd try searching through our threads first as there is a big influx of people to the M35/M45 now that the entry price is attractive for the 06's and 07's.

Good luck!

Thank You very much ! I am an avid ebayer so that is my nesting point for seeking out bargains I actually am pursuing an 2007 m35x with the tech. package.

The speakers in the front seats appeal to me greatly.

22k with 36k miles sounds decent enough !

As soon as I go through with the purchase I will post pics immediately !

I got mine on e-bay as well. $32.5 for 32K miles Premium pkg in Nov 07. I love her. She gets about 22 mpg @ 65-75 thru all terrain (mtns and hwy) on 89 octane. Gets about 25 mpg cruising @ approx 60-65 mph on level flats along the Columbia river basin. Gets about 13 mpg in town, stop and go etc. :-(

She's definitely got an excess drinking habit-but then you already knew that; otherwise she's perfect. Enjoy!!

Oh yeah, watch out for the tramlining on the OEM Goodyears and other tires. Don't get sucked into the apparent endless and depressing morass of pseudo steering rack "problems..."
