2005 with 23k miles is $31,900 Fcon installed
2007 with 10k miles is $35,000 fcon, but not installed (seller said, it was causing bad idle and cruise control issues?????, tuned the stock ecu and said it runs 10x better and actually got 20+ whp, sound weird to me)

As far as other comments about car 1 having more future HP, Im fine at anything in the mid 500 whp range.
here you go

Absolutely, price is a huge factor but I started a tread on G35 including all other points, considering price/miles/style/parts/color/sound/

Car 1 is OB 2005 with 23k miles 12K on build $32,000 stock sound no nav
Car 2 is IP 2007 with 10k miles 4k on build $35,000 this car has nav and great sound system

Dont know how i missed that... hmmm. i would go with #2.. It's newer/less miles on motor/turbos, etc.... BUT!!!!! I would contact my tuner/installer and get their opinion on both cars before i made a move. Either one I would most likely get a retune just cause it wasnt my car to begin with, and Car #1 may have a tune you dont like. And you get a fresh new tune...

I love the look of the G plus the interior is more suitable for me. If I was going for performance only I would go G
