Advice wanted

I purchase my 2009 g37xs in December 2012 with 77 000km I'm at 128 000km now my extended warranty will be over when I reach 137 000, in the that little time I had to replace the cruise control module and the radio cost was over $11 000, power steering pump also.

Basically I wanted to know what do you guys think should I trade it or keep it and do the repair myself as they come, specially when the G will be extinct?
I was told by Nissan Canada if I want en extra warranty it will be best for me to go back to where i bought it and talk to the dealer.
to bad I wasn't in the U.S for the price I bought the 09 I could of drove an 2012-2013 im sure lol
thats the pic of the car with my bike.

Tks in advance.

That's probably a question only you can answer. You know the vehicles history, at least the last 50k kms. That seems like an outrageous amount of money for the parts listed, but if it was out of your pocket you'd be able to use the wrecking yard to source parts which would cut the price way down.

For the price your G is worth I doubt you could replace it with something as nice. Now if you want to be driving new again (or newer) than that's a whole new expense, and like I said, only you can determine what's right for you & your situation.

Oh, nice bike BTW!

$11 000!!! That's a lot of money for those repairs. A quarter of the price of a new car!

Oh I know it is, they had to replace the gps too cuz when I got it back everything was erase lol and it was all under warranty tho thats what saved me or else I would of traded in fast for a newer model lol.
I must admit I love how the members post the DIY in here it help me a lot by reading them. I think I read somewhere here where a member warranty was coming to an end and he brought to infiniti for a final inspection is that possible?

When my 06 G35 with 171796 miles needed a few thousand dollars worth of work I traded it in for my 2012 G37S.
I'm very happy that I did.
A new vehicle comes with all new parts and a warranty.
Very soon all vehicles will be equipped with WiFi.
I want one of those so my present 2012 will get traded for one of those.
Cars are becoming like I Phones
Many want the latest and greatest.
Life is short

I agree with telcoman. When my 04 G35 coupe started getting some aweful brake screech (I know cheap fix) and the mileage started to get up there to the 73K range I figured it'd be best to trade her in and finally get that hardtop vert that I had been wishing for ever since I got home from deployment/finished with medical retirement (forced retirement btw...ba$tards). I don't know what your current situation is but I have a teenage step-daughter that is only a few years away from needing a vehicle herself. It came down to a now or never kinda deal. I eventually found a great deal on a 12 37 vert and once i added a CAI to it I've not regretted it whatsoever. I say if you financial situation dictates that you can afford a trade up the roll with it bro. Give KuniWestSideInfiniti based near Seattle a chance. I live in Arkansas and even with the added costs of having my G35 shipped up there and the 37 shipped to me the Kuni dealership was able to beat every other vehicles price (all 37 VERTS btw) that had made it to my final cut list by a full $6,200. Those guys are just straight shooters and they price their stuff very close to lowest they can accept. If you give them a call ask to speak to Erik Oken. Really nice dude and he did a ton of extra work to get me into the car of my dreams. Including talking the manager into adding a G on top of their trade in offer to offset the costs of shipping the vehicles. By far the best buying exlerience I've ever had

Tks you all for your input, I think I will start looking cuz the 2012-2013 are getting cheaper and I have look into kuniwestsideinfiniti.com/certified-inventory and I wish I lived in the US lol.
look what we have here Used Infiniti G37X for sale - Infiniti de Laval - page #1 there not bad prices too, I may have to travel to Montreal and look for a trade when the time is right.
