Just kind of starting to think about upgrading to a 05 G35x...

It's a 96 2.5TL with 234K miles.
Some dings, some scratches, nothing outrageous. No leather, no moon-roof
Brand new tires-200 miles on them
On it's 3rd timing belt and water pump
Very well taken care of, same owner since 1999 when it had 124K miles on it.
Comes with tinted windows, alarm, JVC cd player with an ipod jack, 10" sub with an amp (which I may or may not take out).
-NO rust

It's pretty clean for year and miles, always passed emissions, runs and drives well.

Thanks

i'd say put if up for 2-3k it all depends someone offered me 5k for mine with 189 on the clock but tons of swapped parts. see what you can get either way you got your $$ out of the car so just get some for a down payment from seeling the TL good luck with the sale

That's exactly what I was thinking....I might keep it in the fam; don't know yet....but I think I already got my new car. Took it for the weekend and will probably buy it next week

Be sure to post up some picks of the G35x. By the way, is the dealer giving it away for a weekend test drive or are you buying from someone you know?

No go on the G, the thing was junk. There is no way that it had 44K ACTUAL miles on it but what was I to expect at that price?

After the dealership, I went to my friend's lot to see what he had (I used to work there) and he just took in a 06 Mazda6 S Grand touring V6 in trade. 33K miles, auto, xenon lights, bose, 6 disc cd changer, heated leather, moonroof, spoiler, ground effects, 18" wheels, and the list goes on and on. I never even looked at these cars and I really liked it. He's giving it to me at cost and I need to put tires on it. I took it for the weekend to make sure I like it but it looks like I'll be getting it. For the price, I can't go wrong. I need something right now that will get me through 2 years with little or no headaches and something decent.

The Mazda actually has more options than the G, is newer, less miles, longer warranty remaining and cheaper.. And MUCH MUCH MUCH better condition.
Here's a pic of it:

^ Looks nice, too bad it's not a Mazdaspeed one, .

I know! That would have been perfect, but the price is right

I always liked these the 6's, too bad they're built in the states, which is weird since the 3's are built in Japan.

no leather or moonroof?

vas25tl

Yup - Basic TL...not many of these around.

Update: Keeping the TL in the family, buying the Mazda. Everyone is happy.
