First post, need opinions!
Hey guys first post and looking to get my first Infiniti. I will be trading in my 2010 Lexus ES350 for a g37x sedan. I found one I really really like but the dam car has 71k miles on it and its a 2010! Pretty high mileage but good price, car is going for 24900 I believe. My question is, is it worth it since it has so many miles? Its a CPO but dam just thinking about driving it for 2 years and the car is gonna hit 100k miles. Anyway its the "anniversary sport edition" and I know there was only 350 built which makes even more tempting. The monaco red interior, decklid, aggressive front bumper special wheels and black grille looks so dam sexy, decisions decisions...

I fail to see the point of trading in a 2010 Lexus for a 2010 G37.
Have you priced a new G37?
What is the value of a 2010 Lexus if you sold it privately?
A new vehicle comes with all new parts and a warranty

I agree with Telcoman. My wife has a '12 ES350 and I have an '11 Limited Edition G. Totally different cars. Hers is more luxurious with a nicer interior, while mine trumps it (bad) in performance.
I would not get a car with 70k+ miles, but that's me.

Unless you really need AWD I'd look for a G37 S (not the X S), you'll get more sport upgrades like the big brakes. Should be able to find one w/ much better mileage. I know you'll like driving it more than the ES for sure 
The ES is probably better to sit in, but the G is MUCH better to drive!

The LE is special because it's a limited build car, has unique trim, and that in-your-face red leather. The wheels are unique too, although I think they're the worse design in the line-up. (Sorry, MACS. 
) Obviously, you're jonesing for the car, so you like everything about it, and that's cool. But understand that the price is noticeably inflated because the car is an LE. There's that, and the entirely pointless, $1000 bump that comes with being a CPO car.
If you're paying cash, then going from a 2010 ES350 to a 2010 G37xS is a wash. But if you're flipping and extending financing, you need to remind yourself what a bad idea it is to spend nearly $25K on a three year old Nissan with 75K miles already on the car.
No. No it's not.

You should post up some pics of your LE for the OP here, if only to tease him.

just for a bit of perspective, I bought a 2010 with 29k mills for 25k. granted its not a limited, but the price is waaaay too high for a vehicle of that mileage. 71k also means it is out of warranty, and if it has an extended warranty it will not last much longer. just my two cents, good luck with whatever you choose to do.

Hey all, this is my first post.
Just bought a 2010 G37x in slate blue last night. It has the premium package and navigation. Not certified but bought it with just under 32k miles for just under $25,000. I would never spend $25k on a car with over 70k miles.

Thats a lot of miles for a 2010 i would say keep looking....hold on to your ES a lil bit longer. I own a Is250 myself also looking to get a G sometime this year just waiting on the right car and price.
