some newbie questions

Would you shy away from G37x with higher then 80k miles? How well would a car seat for? I currently have an old beater car and I want a car that is fun to drive. I test drove a G37x and loved it! I am currently looking for one below 15k if I can but I might save up longer and get one around 20k. In my area I can get a low mileage one for around the 20k mark. Please let me know of any issues relating to these Cara at higher mileage

Def a fun car - You will love it but I would suggest to go with a G37S as there is a lot of aftermarket support for it and more features from factory!!!

It will be hard and expensive to buy parts for the X. I had one, I know!! Anyway, good luck

Oh in that case, you can't go wrong with G37X

I'd recommend to find a 2013 and up because of Rear timing gasket cover issues on the previous models.

Yeah, I've read that. Thanks for the tips! That's also part of the reason I can't afford one right now trying for 12 or newer

There's a lot of aftermarket support even including the X. The S model gets you some more goodies like BBK but the X is just fine. Also keep your eyes out for an xS model, which comes with paddle shifters and sport bumper parts. I got my 2009 xS Sedan fully loaded with 64k miles for under $15k from a private seller.

But to answer your question, 80k miles for a G isn't bad at all. Just make sure you get maintenance and service history if available.

If you can find an XS coupe that comes w/ the nice big Akebono brakes, if you can live w/ two doors Welcome to the site and G/L with your search. Keep us posted on your progress.

Just have to be patient in your search as the XS coupe is quite a bit harder to find than regular X coupes, bit they are out there. CarMax is an option you might try.
