Is this 2013 g37xs sedan worth buying as a first car? I heard alot that the 2013s reliability is alot better
140k km (86991 miles) and it looks fully stock but has an exhaust leak but in the engine bay picture at the coolant hole theres like dried up coolant at the end of the hose, maybe a clamp gone bad?

clean title, one minor fender bender in 2013

(the listing description)
2013 Infiniti G37xS

AWD with paddle shifting

About 335 HP

Heated leather seat and Bose sound system

Fresh oil change

Brakes and tires done within a year

Has an exhaust leak that makes it very loud

 

Reliability is roughly the same on the 2013, but the gallery gaskets were indeed changed from paper to metal this year so many say reliability is better. In reality, many members here have pre-2013 and never ran into any gallery gasket issues.

HP is 328 for these cars.

Check the exhaust leak. Make sure there isn't some mickey mouse exhaust mod that's the culprit, or maybe a failed attempt at removing the cats. You also need to replace that upper radiator hose soon, replace the lower one and the thermostat at the same time as its accessible with the lower hose off.

Also, pet peeve is the missing emblem on the engine cover. You can find these for cheap online (even the 3D printed version looks better than missing). Exterior looks really clean (use some Flitz polish on the headlights). How is the interior?

 

What is that mass of wires on the drivers side by the airbox/intake tube?

 

Interior is mint, drivers seat has a small tear on the like outside of the seat and it really looks like a 60000km interior, rear seat looks like its never been sat in no wrinkles or anything

 

seller said its a Battery charger that’s been coiled up and that its stock

 

Like a trickle charger, or is there an AC plug tucked away in that bundle? Maybe a dealer installed option?

 

It's a Canadian-spec car. That cable likely has a AC plug on the end of it and it's for the engine block heater.

Nissan never had a OEM "battery charger" as a dealer installed option (well, maybe for the Leaf but I doubt it).

Though, admittedly, after looking at that pic, that is a jumbled mess of conduit so who knows...
