My requirements:It has been be an All Wheel Drive and automatic, since my wife will be driving too.
Like to have, not musts:Backup/Rearview camera, Navigation, have not confirmed either with the dealers. 2007 seem to have navigation not sure if it has backup since i'm not sure it has the technology pack.

Both of them are within my budget, but lower the price the better, but essentially I'm looking for the best deal.

Summary from above:
2007 had 1 colorado owner, seem to have been regularly serviced at an infinity dealer. Has lower mileage, 64,000. Was recently serviced according to Carfax. Was in a accident in 2009. Meets most of my requirements, not sure about the rearview camera. $14,500 including dealer fees.
2009 had 2 owners, one in las vegas and another in colorado. Has relatively low mileage, 71,000. Also have been recently service includes new tires according to Carfax. Also, meets most of my requirements, not 100% sure on Nav and Rear camera. $16,400 including dealer fees.

Please advice in general what you think you these deals?
What should I look out for? Are there any common issues I should look for?
Is 2009 worth it over 2007?
Overall which do you think is better deal? or should I keep looking for a better one? I'm not in a hurry to buy.

As of right now, I'm leaning towards 2009, cause it is a newer model. Has more efficient transmission and likely has more electronic features such as iPod integration. But I'm worried about the 7000 miles, fact it had two owners. I will definitely have both of them inspected at an infiniti dealership before buying.

Any advice would be much appreciated. Thank you.

 

Had to fix one of the links.

Please give me some input. I would really like to own of these cars!!

 

Do you guys think 16,400 is a good price for 2009 with 71k miles, AWD, premium package and navigation package? I haven't been able to find a better deal in colorado.

KBB:16,728
Edmunds:16,568
NADA:18,100

Thanks for looking and input.

 

I would up my budget to around $25000. Too many good deals on almost brand new cars for around that price.

 

Welcome to the site!
That 09 sounds like a nice deal, the price compared to the 07 is good since the 07 has an accident on record.
$16k for the performance and features seems pretty solid as long as the car inspects well.
Be sure the AT has the current TSB updates, an Infiniti dealer should be able to run the VIN# to confirm.

 

Awesome thank you for the input...I will definitely have a dealer check TSB update, didn't know that. BTW, what other issues, problems, updates should I look out for this year?

 

Worry about the timing cover gasket blowing out and costing $3000 to repair if you can't pull the whole front end of the car and motor apart yourself!

 

Oh wow...did not know that, is that something I can check for or have the dealership check for it? Should I have them do a compression test or leakdown test?

 

I'm trying not to spend more than 20k...what deals in particular though?

 

Check your local infiniti dealerships. Don't go there! Just send them a email inquiry about the car. Then if they still have it and it's been in their inventory for a while. They may be willing to negotiate! But, start the negotations off with a low ball offer. I just got my '13 journey w/nav w/ less than 8000 miles for $25383. Much better car than my '10 G37 i traded in as everything i hated about it has been fixed in 2013!

 

No, i believe you have to install a oil psi sending unit to tell if the gasket is leaking. It's probably nothing as i'm sure there's way more car's out there that are fine than one's that are not. But, it can and has happened. Seriously you need to get someones cream puff who didn't abuse the car if your going to go high mileage used.

 

Yea, I'm definitely taking a risk buying a car with high mileage especially a performance car. Now I'm not sure if I should take the risk, it did have two owners according to Carfax, I haven't gotten the AutoCheck yet.

 

Send these guys a low ball offer. All they can say is, NO!

OK sounds good...I think a lowball offer would be something like 18k? Does that sound good? Sorry for the amateur hour here...

 

No, they aren't going to go that low! I was thinking more like $23,000. I know that's over your budget. But, you'll have a better more reliable car under warranty.
