duh read the description more closely.. 3.5 liter engine.

this bad boy had an engine swap for a smaller older engine, doesnt it make sense to price it 10-20k more?

Sweet guys, I just won this auction for a G37 on eBay, the price was a little high, but it comes with the out of date motor. I'm so stoked, gonna save that MPG. BTW is there any places to get mods done in Stafford, TX?

For those who aren't local, that is a "high end" dealership in Houston that deals mostly in exotics. On their website it's listed at $33,995. Trying to get over on an ebay sucker perhaps?

True that. If you look at the pics you clearly see its a 3.7L and NOT a 3.5. +1 for stupidity.
