Bought myself an I35..Pictures!
I had to sell my 2004 Nissan Maxima SE Elite package 6 speed due to not needing a second car and decided to get something that the wife can drive. So I ended up buying 2002 I35 with 103K miles. I am a big fan of black interiors but had to settle with the gray one. Interior pictures look better than what the interior is
. The car is in excellent shape with a couple of minor things.
1. Tons of curb rash on the wheels. I have Maxima 17inch rims which I am debating to replace. Anyone know if I sand the rims out and put clearcoat will it be a good option.
2. The cup holder cover is broken. I saw tons of I35s and each one of them was broken.
3. Bose sucks! Cds skip all day long. I replaced the stereo with an aftermarket sony but used Metra harness that makes it sound like crap and the sub doesnt work. Will replace it with PAC. So looking into it.
4. Minor rust (expected from a 10 year old car)
5. Some rattle in the suspension that I cannot figure out. Minor on bumpy roads but I take care of my cars!

Nice looking car! I think I have the same rattle you have on my I30, but I keep thinking it's the exhaust even though when it was on a lift nothing pointed that it would be that. BTW, if you swap out wheels, let me know if you would be willing to part with your I35 center caps!

Rust is minor and not bad at all. Just a very small bubble in the quarter panel and drivers door ****. Interior is in good shape.
What do you guys do for the stereo. I put on the metra kit and it looked BAD! Not to forget it sounded like crap with the harness. I need to buy a PAC ROEM-NIS.
Any help on the rims? I hate the curb rash on them! Have any of you encountered curb rash? How have you dealt with it?

sweet I35,, I like the color... I just picked one up a couple of weeks ago with 67k miles.. Also have the same crappy shorting out with the Bose CD player... Do you have any hood vibrating issues over 60mph? .. That is the only other thing wrong with mine.

Hood vibration is very common in our cars. Simple solution.. There are these rubber tabs mounted on the sides of the radiator support on top of the headlight. Raise them a bit and close the hood. Problem SOLVED
