Hi everyone, just signed up for an account - will hopefully be a new owner soon - once i hit the 10 days / 10 posts i'll be posting/searching the classified. I've been on a few other forums with past vehicles as well. Hope to have a new ride soon!

thanks

 

Welcome! What kind of G are you looking for?

 

I'm looking for a 2009 or newer G37x coupe. Really love the styling - and I just accepted a job that will require some traveling in Erie County / Buffalo NY regions. I want the piece of mind of the AWD, and some comfort and style. I already got preapproved for a loan just need to find the right car.

 

Welcome to the forum.

 

Thank you

 

Nice intro, God luck with your search. If you can up your budget I'd consider a 2012+ model. The pre 2012s have an inferior timing gasket that costs upward of $2k when it goes bad. It's not a real common failure but it's something to be aware of.

 

Hello and welcome to the club! You've came to the right place - lots of knowledgeable people here who can help you when you get what you're looking for. Good luck with the hunt and ask away if you need any info.

 

welcome!!!

 

At the moment I don't think my budget would put a 2012+ in reach, but I will def keep this in mind. Is there anything that can be done to the earlier models to avoid this? Any signs that it's going bad i should check for on those models?

 

An error code will pop up when your oil pressure gets very low, but at that point the failure has already occurred. You can have the oil pressure tested but unfortunately that's all you can do to verify that it's ok or not.
Here's one thread on this issue
