Hey everyone about to get my first car and Im really hoping to pull the trigger on a pretty clean 2010 G37 coupe manual with the sport package @131,000km. Just wondering what some things I should look out for when getting this car and if this is a decent price for the car. Also wondering what are some common issues that I may have with the car and how the maintenance is and what not. Any tips on the car is helpful and what are your opinions on godspeed coills. The seller says it comes with the following

Aftermarket performance upgrades include lowered Godspeed springs, and a RC2 short ram cold air intake. Sale includes the original components if the new owner wishes to return to stock. Also available for an extra $400 is a 12" ported subwoofer and 600W amplifier already installed .

just need some help any advice is helpful

 

Maintenance & Compression test for engine. Take to dealer for a PPE. Rear timing gasket is always worth mentioning for pre 2012 models; look that up.

Since you're looking at the 6MT, ask if the slave cylinder has ever been replaced. They're a common fail point on the car. How long have springs been on the car? Stock suspension is probably on its last leg at that KM if they've had it on for a while. Drive the car and make sure the spring rates and ride is something you can live with. Look for rear differential bushing leak as well. Coolant is also due at that KM so see if that's been done. If not, knock a couple hundred off the price.

 

Pull the carpet on the floor of the front seats and check for any water. Sometimes the sunroof drain grommet will go bad on these cars and cause water leaks during heavy rain. Also, "RC2 short ram cold air intake" is misleading. Short ram intakes pull hot air from the engine bay. Get a good pair of long tube intakes that pull cold air from behind the grill.
