2003 Infiniti G35 Base Coupe 2-door 3.5l on 2040-cars

South Bend, Indiana, United States

 134,500 approximate miles. This car spent most of it's life in Houston, Texas.  It has only been on the road here in lovely South Bend for 400 miles or so.  Just had a major service done with Gurley Leep Nissan (December 2013) so I have a good idea what is good and bad about this car.  First the good parts.  It is a very, very fast car that handles like a dream.  Documented service from Gurley Leep includes:  Synthetic oil change, brand new windshield, side window tint, four wheel alignment, two new rear tires, replaced spark plugs, replaced air filter, replacement of both valve cover gaskets, replaced crankcase rear main seal, performed fuel/air induction system service, temperature sensor replaced, replaced thermostat and gasket, power steering fluid flushed and replaced, rear differential service, replaced rear brake pads and transmission fluid exchange service.  A total of $4,000+ of service.  I also added a $1,000 Kenwood Stereo at Best Buy.  It is very nice.  $5,000 worth of service and add ons.  It rides like a bat out of hell.  Now the bad parts.  When I bought my new car just recently, Gurley Leep told me that this vehicle has had an accident.  It is a clear title, but it has been in a wreck.  I don't have any other details than that.  It needs to have a Steering Angle Sensor replaced.  Cost to replace this part is $816.  Without this part, the traction control in the car does not work.  While this does not affect performance in my opinion, it might be something you want to consider.  The inside of the car is kinda rough.  The seats, while comfy, have tears.  There is a small dent on the hood.  You can't really see it in the pictures, but if you are walking towards the car at the right angle you can definitely see it.  There is also some trim inside the vehicle that is coming off.  The power locks for the doors do not work, and this is a real pain in the ass.  Once you get used to power locks, reaching over to lock the passenger door is just too much to handle sometimes.  Just needs some TLC.  Because of the mileage on the car, I want to be clear that I am selling the car AS IS.  I have only used it as second vehicle.  I have done my best to give you an idea of what is needed, but the Gurley Leep Nissan information is your best bet.  (I have included pictures that show their thoughts on the vehicles condition, what needed to be done and what WAS done.  Overall I think this vehicle is a great deal.

Edmunds ranks the best used cars for 2013

Sun, 15 Sep 2013

When people ask us what car we would recommend for them, it's usually not easy to answer. To make a useful recommendation we must consider which of the numerous vehicle segments fits their needs best, and then choose one of the many vehicles offered in each segment. For some people, new cars don't meet their expectations of value, because they lose so much of it the moment they are purchased and driven off the dealer lot. For them, there's always the used-car market, where great deals can be found, but cars' histories of reliability and maintenance records - and perhaps that Certified Pre-Owned warranty - become ever-important factors playing into purchase choice.
To help out, Edmunds has done us the favor of assembling a list of the best used vehicles money can buy, covering model years 2006-2011, according to what it considers the most important criteria when shopping for used autos: reliability, safety, value and availability. That means unreliable, unsafe, super-expensive or limited-edition models don't appear on the list, but instead cars from each segment that are more likely to satisfy the general population.
There are some real goodies on the list, including but not limited to vehicles such as the capable Honda Fit, the cultish Honda Accord coupe (which can be had with a 240-horsepower V6 and a six-speed manual transmission some years), and the powerful Chevrolet Corvette. While Edmunds' choice of the Volvo C70 for best used convertible baffled us at first (not that it's a bad car), it redeemed itself by stating that the Mazda MX-5 still is an unofficial top choice if you don't require more than two seats.

BMW reclaims US luxury sales crown from Mercedes

Tue, Jan 6 2015

The numbers, they are in: BMW has reclaimed the luxury-sales crown from Mercedes by a margin of 9,347 cars. Mercedes donned the king's headgear in 2013 after a strong final quarter of 2013 when the new CLA and S-Class poured out of dealerships. This year, led by the 3 Series/4 Series and X5, BMW sold 339,738 units – a 9.8-percent increase year-on-year. Mercedes, led by the C-Class and M-Class, saw its sales go up by 5.7 percent to 330,391 units. We'll have to wait a bit to see if there's another registrations-vs-sales challenge as in 2012, when BMW was anointed US luxury ruler. Behind them, a dark horse named Lexus nudged closer to the leading Teutons, selling 311,389 cars. The Japanese luxury automaker also had the biggest gain among the top three, its sales rising by 13.7 percent compared to 2013. Audi had the biggest sales of anyone among the top five, though, with a 15.2-percent gain to 182,011, which moved it a spot ahead of Cadillac; the Wreath-and-Crest brand dropped 6.5 percent to 170,750. Acura (167,843), Infiniti (117,300), and Lincoln (94,474) took the final positions. Speaking of Lincoln, sales at the once-mighty luxury marque stand as the mightiest jump of any on this list, up 15.6 percent. That's the power of Matthew McConaughey... and better cars and a new crossover, sure. So now that we're back to Round One of 2015, in case no one else has said it yet: "Ok, fight!"
