Welcome. Cannot see interior. No way to verify model.

68,000 miles is pushing it. Soon it will be time for replacing parts like dampers and wheel bearings. They do not last forever.

Seller states he is making payments to lender. I do not buy cars with a lien against the title.

Can't see much from the photo.What it does show looks good.
Whats the price?The 06 had some oil problems.Whats the usage
from the owner?Any records?On the lien to dealer issue...
not a deal breaker IMO.I'd talk DIRECTLY to the dealer on the
payoff,options etc.
Also,the OEM wheels are not chrome but a polished alloy.
The mods mentioned,Nismo stuff,are a added value if the price is right

Good luck

Oh i know. I try to have some hope for it to happen someday.

At least if you catch it in the beginning of the thread, maybe they won't respond with anymore questions.

The OEM wheels are painted, not polished. There was an optional chrome wheel that could be purchased.

Ty. And guys i've been doing this forums thing for years now. If you don't have anything helpful to say don't say anything. It doesn't benefit anyone. You'd think people might be more respectful these days.

Our point is when other members go to search, they have threads like yours pop up along with 50+ similar ones where all of the information is the same, and most of it is useless. Hence, not benefiting anyone in the future. Information about each model year is one of the most common things asked/searched about. The information is out there. You just have to find it. A last resort would be Google.

If you have been doing this for years, then I'm sure you know how to use search. I find it hard to believe the other forums you have been on didn't have search.
