Ok well I would recommend looking for 05+ if possible, just because there are less small problems such as the window motor dying that's in the 04, and also the 05 has just nicer gauges and lots of nice minor changes, such as the trim being authentic aluminum instead of plastic and the seats having more power controls and smoother shifting.
I would set up an account on G35driver.com, it's free and the website is pretty well laid out and everyone is friendly. My name is Darkstar752 on there, and they will definitely search for you and they know what to look for in it. Also, if you get one your sister can use it later to ask about any problems and learn more about the car. Also, they can run free carfax's for you if you need it, but if you need that PM me over there and I will give you a link to the thread.

Re: East Coast G35 Coupe Search
Hey I appreciate it definatly. I'll have to set up a account, the options are getting pretty exhausted around here for g35 auto coupes.
We were looking more for the 05+ and really a 06 if we can help it. The 06's seem to have several small upgrades over the 05's if i'm correct.

Yes you are correct but honestly your she wont be able to tell the difference between an 03-06. If I were you I would just look for one that looks nice, was well maintained, and has low miles. You can find plenty under 19k especially this time of the year.
Its her first car, she probably doesnt know much about cars, so I think she will be happy regardless the year g35 coupe she is getting unless she is arrogant and will not appreciate a gift that only select few can get at that age.

Re: East Coast G35 Coupe Search
My sister grew up with me, knows a TON about cars, and will definatly be able to tell an 03-06. So we will be looking an 05-06.

The 06 has bluetooth as the only interior upgrade.
As far as exterior, the headlights were changed from normal HID headlights to projector headlights, producing a lot more light. Also, the taillights changed slightly, and added a button on the left taillight that pops the trunk. If you get the sport edition, there will be a slightly different bumper and the spoiler changed from the 03-05 version. That is all the changes.
If you buy an 04-05, you can put in the projector headlights easily, they are just plug and play, and there is a DIY on G35driver on how to remove them and install the new ones. A brand new pair is $550 shipped, and can be found on eBay for less.
If you can save a lot of money getting an 05, then I would get it since you can easily swap out the headlights. The only real reason to get an 06 is just another year of warranty.
Warranty btw is
Bumper to bumper: 4 yr/60,000 miles
Powertrain: 6 yr/70,000 miles

Re: East Coast G35 Coupe Search
Hey Brandon, the dealer on Capital Blvd is pretty decent, have you asked them if they could do a dealer search for the southeast?
BTW - we're getting old, my daughter is turning 15 this year, fortunitely she wants a Jetta!

Re: East Coast G35 Coupe Search
Yeah, they are way over KBB priced for everything they can search for.
