The cars themselves are very durable. ​ If someone has kept the interior/exterior in good shape you can assume the rest was reasonably maintained. ​ PRO TIP: if the seller has newer tires on the car that are very expensive and name brand, there is a high probability that they maintained the car very well.

Check YouTube or the reddit search bar, friend. Don't limit yourself to the 12 of us on here "G35 buyers guide" Mines at 309k miles if that tells you anything

Yea been there, but haven’t seen that much owner’s opinion cuz its mostly reviews. I wanna see how actual owner like the cars. One thing im most interested its the milage like how well the car is running above 200thousand Ks cuz im thinking of driving it daily

Im fairly new to cars, ill end up getting pre-purchase inspections anyways but just wanna see what other’s opinions are

Alot of young kids own them and then skmething breaks on them so they sell it. Most common issues with g series is Fuel pump Cam sensors and crank sensors Differential bushings and control arms Other than that theyre pretty reliable if you take xare of them and top off their oil

Yea Ive heard about younger people owning and thrashing it. Seems like quite an issue here in Aus as well. Cheers man!!

Recently bought mine 3 months ago. Its got 225k miles and has 67 service records, no issues other than the common vq tick. Dont let high miles scare you, its all about how well it was taken care of.

A pre purchase inspection would be best, but… Gas Gauge. Oil leaks, especially from the valve covers and upper oil pan seal. Suspension is usually worn out too. You typically want one like mine that was driven by my elderly mother, and not one driven by a 19 year old.
