08' G37S Tranny and Diff fluid change question, help asap!

I am considering a purchase of a 08' G37S Auto Coupe with about 33k miles on it from southern CA. I am assuming that the tranny and diff oils have never been changed on this car. Can anyone speak to whether I should change these oils asap. Is there a way to check the tranny and diff oils on the G or are they both sealed with no filler reservoir? Any help/opinions on this would be appreciated as I do not have much time to read through a bunch of threads on the site to get the answers as I am driving 3 hours to S.D. tomorrow to look at the car.

Thanks!

LOL I will be a pretty active member! I was on the Planet 9 site too! I am trying see if Stillen can look at it on Saturday.

Does anyone know of a reputable mechanic in San Diego or LA area that can check this out?

Just change them if you're unsure. It's relatively inexpensive.
