2006 G35 Coupe with a Turbonetics, single turbo system. Most every option including the pop-up navigation, sun roof, memory seats...

History:

I bought this car and used it to travel for work, several trips between Michigan/California/Arizona. I had a Turbonetics system installed at a shop in Lake Forrest, CA when it had around 30K miles ($9,000). After the install I continued to use it as a daily driver and even did 2 cross country trips with it. Suffice it to say, the milage is mostly highway (put 50,000 miles on a set of Nitto's, thats how soft I drive it). The car has been extremely reliable, before and after the turbo install.

Mechanical condition:

The car has been sitting in my garage since 2010, undriven. It was running fine when I parked it, but I consider this a bit of a project since it will require some TLC to get it back on the road. I assume the fuel system will need to be cleaned out and there is a oil blow-by issue with the dip stick and possibly a hose. When the engine is under boost, it smokes. This sort of thing has happened maybe 2 or 3 times since the turbo install, but this is not one of the engines that has an oil consumption problem, it doesn't use a drop between changes. One of the issues is the oil level stick, it just needs a better one. The other issue was a loose hose under the car I had fixed 3 or 4 years ago. I would think this problem is one similar since I have never driven the car hard and rarely got into the boost for more than a few seconds. The other thing it probably needs is a computer re-flash. It was running fine, but it hasn't had a tune since 2008. The car has no rattles, shakes squeeks, drives and handles like new.

Physical condition:

I am the second owner (purchased in 2008 with <15K miles). I purchased brand new TSW 19" rims with Falken 35/19/245, 275 (front, rear). They have less than 300 miles on them ($2600). It also has a brand new Seibon hood, trunk lid, inner cooler front end, all in clear coat carbon fiber ($2800). The front clip has a scuff on the bottom that will be an easy repair if you choose and the new body work needs small fitment adjustments, I installed the new parts and then parked the car never getting back to it. The interior is very clean with very light wear, I almost never had passengers. The front windsheild needs replacement, got cracked somehow during storage. I personally believe that this car needs no more than $2500 - $3000 to be a perfectly sound daily driver that reliably puts down 350+ RWHP, just like before I put it away. The carbon fiber is top of the line and accents the car very well. No spoiler trunk lid and it just looks like it means business. The car is considerably faster than stock (+125 Wheel HP).

Why I am selling:

I simply do not have time for this. It has been in my garage for nearly 3 years and I will not have time to finish it in the forseeable future. I just want it out of my garage. I am not a mechanic and there isn't a shop that could support what I need done within' 300 miles. I have loved this car since the day I bought it and absolutely hate to get rid of it. I am an out of state traveling worker and really can't have the attachment of a project car at this point. I truely believe that this car would be a good buy up to $12K since the upgrades alone (Carbon Fiber, Rims/Tires, Turbo, Meth Injection) were a $14,000 investment. I am starting the bidding very low with no reserve because I want it sold and because it will require a modest investment to get it back on the road. The car is located in Eureka, CA but still has a Michigan title (I'm a dual resident). It will not pass CA smog and is being sold "As Is". The buyer is responsible for shipping/pick up. $500 deposit upon auction close with the remainder paid within 5 days please. Good luck.

Genesis G70 vs sport sedan rivals: How it compares on paper

Fri, Sep 15 2017

We got our first look at the Genesis G70 sport sedan today. We think it looks good, with enough ties to its fellow Genesises (Geneses?) to further establish the brand and just enough distinction to help it stand out from the crowd. But ah yes, the crowd. Although Genesis didn't release the G70's full spec sheet, it revealed just enough for us to start sizing it up to its future competition. There are certainly others with which to compare (Lexus IS, Cadillac ATS, Alfa Romeo Giulia, Jaguar XE just to name a few), but we decided to take a look at the best sellers and most competitive luxury sport sedans. (And hey, if you like this, we can always do a follow up) So, here we have the Genesis G70 vs BMW 3 Series vs Audi A4 / S4 vs Mercedes-Benz C-Class vs Infiniti Q50. Nothing like a good chart to dig your teeth into on a Friday. Note that we only compared those models that line up with the G70. So, we left out the BMW 320i and Audi A4 Ultra entry level models as well as the Q50 3.0t mid-grade model that's considerably cheaper than the German performance upgrade models we listed. All 0-60 figures are rough estimates based on several sources, models/drivetrains and OEM figures.

Major automakers post mixed US June sales figures

Mon, Jul 3 2017

General Motors, Ford and Fiat Chrysler Automobiles NV posted declines in US new vehicle sales for June on Monday, while major Japanese automakers reported stronger figures. Once again, demand for pickup trucks and crossovers offset a decline in sedan sales. Automakers' shares rose as overall industry sales still came in above Wall Street expectations. The US auto industry is bracing for a downturn after hitting a record 17.55 million new vehicles sold in 2016. Analysts had predicted that overall, US vehicle sales would fall in June for the fourth consecutive month. As the market has shown signs of cooling, automakers have hiked discounts and loosened lending terms. Car shopping website Edmunds said on Monday the average length of a car loan reached an all-time high of 69.3 months in June. "It's financially risky, leaving borrowers exposed to being upside down on their vehicles for a large chunk of their loans," said Jessica Caldwell, Edmunds' executive director of industry analysis. GM said its sales fell about 5 percent versus June 2016, but that the industry would see stronger sales in the second half of 2017 versus the first half. "Under the current economic conditions, we anticipate US retail vehicle sales will remain strong for the foreseeable future." GM shares were up 2.4 percent in morning trading, while Ford rose 3.3 percent and FCA shares jumped 6 percent. "US total sales are moderating due to an industry-wide pullback in daily rental sales, but key US economic fundamentals clearly remain positive," said GM chief economist Mustafa Mohatarem. "Under the current economic conditions, we anticipate US retail vehicle sales will remain strong for the foreseeable future." Ford said its sales for June were hit by lower fleet sales to rental agencies, businesses, and government entities, which fell 13.9 percent, while sales to consumers were flat. But it sold a record 406,464 SUVs in the first half of the year, with Explorer sales increasing 23 percent in June. And sales of the F-150 had their strongest June since 2001. On a media call, Ford executives said an initial read of automakers' sales figures indicated a seasonally adjusted annualized rate of around 17 million new vehicles for the month, which would be better than 16.6 million units analysts had predicted. FCA said June sales decreased 7 percent versus the same month a year earlier.
