Are there any particular years or packages I should look for or possibly stay away from. I read the 350z forum and I understand there may be some issues with the 03 and 04 models. Does this apply to the G35? This car is intended to be a daily driver, no mods or racing. I do like the rear wing on the coupe and I do want the car to be loaded...Nice stereo, leather, navigation system, etc.

I think I will be looking for an 04 or 05 coupe. Am I on the right track with this year coupe. I would appreciate your input. Thanks.

06 fully loaded........do it

 

at the least get an 05 with sport package.
-GP-

 

i got a 03 g35 6mt coupe with 40k .. fully loaded .. no complaints ! =)

 

03-04 brakes are rated poor? :O And i got complimented on how good the stopping power is today. lol

 

only because it wears out QUICK!....however, we do have warranty for 3yr/36K for non-brembo brakes

 

Have Brembo on mine, just waitin till the pads to wear and I'll be picking up some stainless lines, crossdrilled rotors and nismo pads. Can't wait to feel the bite that'll have.

 

I would go with a 2005

 

i used to have a 95 mustang GT convertible as my 1st ride (the last year of the 5.0 liter). Badass car...but the G is a faster, smoother, more reliable, more comfortable, and more luxurious car. get whatever year G you want (can find the best value for), you wont be dissappointed...try to go certified pre-owned if possible. cant go wrong with a car still in warantee or $50 deductible of an extended warrantee.

 

You said you will probably be looking for an 04 or 05. The 05 has the updated interior which IMO looks a lot better than the previous models. Just something to think about.
