Welcome to NICO

Purchasing a G35 from a private party or some used car dealer is a crapshoot in my opinion.Although the G35 is a great vehicle and I love mine, prior to 05 there were issues which you can find out about by searching this site.Although purchasing from a dealer with a warranty is more expensive, having to purchase parts for a G35 can be quite expensive. You didn't mention how many miles are on it but you should be prepared for at least brakes, tires, hoses, belts for starters within a short time. Was it garaged and have all the required services been done? Check the VIN number on carfax. Did it come from Hurricane Katrina?My advice! Wait and purchase new one that comes with a warranty, loaner, free roadside service should you ever need it as well as your choice of options and color.
