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.

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.

Pebble Beach Concept Car Lawn adds class to the grass

Sun, 17 Aug 2014

While Pebble Beach is traditionally thought of as the refuge of the pristine and pricey vintage vehicles of the world, there's no shortage of newer vehicles on display. And when we say "new," we mean really new. As in, not even in production new. This is the concept car lawn, and it's home to an eclectic group of vehicles from past and present.
Of course, calling it the "concept car lawn" is a bit of a misnomer this year (as it has been in previous years, too). Production models like the Alfa Romeo 4C were on display, alongside known quantities like the Hennessy Venom GT and modified versions of already-on-sale models, like the Rolls-Royce Phantom Drophead Waterspeed Collection.
There were a few concepts on display, though. Toyota debuted the critically acclaimed FT-1 Concept in a new shade, while BMW's Beijing Motor Show stunner, the Vision Future Luxury, was also parked on the expensive grass. Also appearing were the Nissan GT-R in sheep's clothing, the Infiniti Q50 Eau Rouge, and the recently debuted McLaren P1 GTR.

Infiniti confirms new "premium compact" to be built in UK

Thu, 20 Dec 2012

Aside from certain naming-related news, Infiniti has actually had some decent product news to announce this week. The company's president, Johan de Nysschen, alluded to a new 550-horsepower performance sedan, and now the automaker has confirmed that a new "premium compact" will go into production in 2015. Based on the fact that this new model will be built alongside the Nissan Leaf at the automaker's Sunderland, UK assembly plant, we could only hope that it's a production version of the LE Concept (shown above).
Sunderland already produces Nissan products like the Qashqai, Juke and Note, and as a part of an investment of 250 million British pounds (around $406 million USD) for the new model, the plant would add an extra 280 jobs with the capacity to build 60,000 of the new Infinitis annually. Adding the premium compact at Sunderland means that Infiniti will have to change its plans for another new model, a bigger "C-segment hatchback," which could very well be a production version of the Etherea Concept.
