opinions on a usedd i35 please....

im looking at a 136,000 02 silver i35 with black leather interior and wood trim. they're asking 8k out the door with no warranty, i drove it and it was tight, no issues. extra warranty is like 800.00 bux to 2,500.00!!! i know i would waste my money on that, needs tires, inspection, and their willing to give lifetime inspection and new rubber if i pay full asking price. here it is, opinions please....http://www.infinitiofwestchester.com...d-7407609.html

this belongs in 5th gen/general/infiniti forums. I35's can be victims of the infamous vq35 oil burning issues. price is a bit high as well. mileage means nothing, if car is religiously taken care of, it could be as solid as a 40k i35.

who needs extended warranty? waste of money.

well being as these cars are soo much like our cars and a few people in here have them i tought it'd be a good place to start. also, it was dealer serviced for the last 5-6 years and looked good under the hood. o, and my car burns oil and leaks as well and i have 225,000 miles on my 95 max.

had you said an SE 6spd then you would've had a point. but why settle for a maxima when you can get the I35? its a lot more luxurious on the inside and looks better outside.

It's the nicest color combo and if the body/interior is in mint shape then its worth paying a few hundred bucks on top. KBB values are only an estimate, actual values vary.
