How many more miles on my 2011 G37?

I'm closing in on 137,000 miles on my 2011 G37. So far I haven't needed to do any kind of repairs. Just the usual oil changes, tires, brakes, wheel alignment, spark plugs. I drive 1 hour to work every day on the freeway at a constant speed. Is this a sign that the car might go another 100K miles without any repairs?

I'm going to pay this thing off finally in October. According to Kelly Blue Book, it will only be worth $9,000 at most. Should I just keep this car or trade it in for another G37?

Wow!! Impressive..

did you ever change out transmission and/or differential fluid? i'm coming up on 110,000 miles (2nd owner): auto 7AT & those maintenance has been on my to do list but see what "experienced g37" inputs are..

My 2004 G35 had no issues at 170k miles. No oil consumption like everyone else.

These cars are built well. Just routine maintenance

@TT, if you expect to get another 100K, periodic renewal of all fluids should be done.

I haven't changed my transmission fluid. I remember reading somewhere that you can't even do that. I might be wrong. I think I did change my rear differential fluid once.

With the amount and type of driving you do I don't imagine you'd have any issues going for another long while. Definitely look into making sure all of your fluids are clean if they haven't been done in a while though.

I am at 249,000 miles on my G35 and it still drives and performs like a new car, no major mechanical issues since day 1. I bought a 2012 G37 last December but kept and drive the g35 all the time. I did decide to refresh the car a little, started working on replacing all bushing etc.

Not getting rid of the G35 until it completely dies and it will cost too much to fix. I do all of my work on the car so will keep it until parts get too expensive.

We'll need a pic of your odometer, that's awesome!
Post a pic of the beast too, sounds worthy

KBB said my car was worth $14.5 +/- $500, but when I got it appraised at a major dealer, they offered me 17. Plus 1080 towards a purchase from them.
