Very old used M35!!!

dlin4229 · 2019-08-03T00:26:32+08:00

I think this guy really loves his Fuga(M35). This car is just like my wife's M35X but my wife's M also comes with a newer engine(VQ35HR) plus AWD... By the way my wife says that she still loves its exterior and interior even though it's very old now. (This generation M began at late 2004!!! It's around 15 years ago... )

Of course, the M35X's instrument definitely looks much older than those fancy digital instrument in new cars...

However, at least these kinds of old and simple instruments will have much less problems!!!

This also reminds me of my colleague's 2006 325i... In 2010 the keyless system failed on her several times which totally drove her crazy!!!

PS: Those fancy digital instruments look very cool when new... However, when they become aged, they could become nightmares!!!

I do NOT say those new fancy features are not good...

For example, I think the keyless systems from my old Nissans are very good and convenient as they NEVER fail on me...

So, reliability is always the first priority... (If you really want to do it, you need to do it RIGHT!!! Otherwise, don't do it because I still live very well without it...)

My wife and I never bought a new car before and now we plan to buy a new car such as Q60, IS350, 400Z, etc for the first time in our lives...

However, my wife said "I don't want a new car!!!" as she may worry if someone scratch her new car...

I think these wonderful Japanese cars are good no matter if they are new or used!!!

(Maybe those used ones are even better because of cheaper price and no burden in mind)

PS: I don't recommend high mileage Japanese cars since they are very reliable but definitely not indestructible especially for those with turbo engines. The extensive misuses will still destroy them EASILY!!!
(I do NOT say all high mileage Japanese cars are bad. Just buying those high mileage cars are much more risky!!!)

My daughter seems to like driving a lot like me...

She also asks me if I could put PSS10 for her 2010 M35X, just like my son's 2007 G35S...

(It looks like she loves the secured handling from PSS10)

She said she preferred M35X because of its big size and more luxury feel... She said that if I could put PSS10 for her M35X, it would be perfect!!!

My daughter also mentioned her classmate's 2016 Q5... She said her classmate complained her family's Q5 was unstable and needed a lot of attention on highway due to SUV's higher ride!!! But, her classmate did like better visibility(look further) on that Q5.

By the way her classmate's family also owns another car which is 18 year old Camry... (But, her classmate still prefers that new Audi... Of course

)

I also asked my daughter about the stiffer ride from PSS10...

She said the ride was still OK... Just be slower when encountering speed bumps... rock

(I think she is still very young... My wife also accepted those stiffer performance suspensions before but not anymore after 50!!!

)

My son just told me he didn't want to drive his old 2007 G35S to his university for the incoming semester!!!

He will live in an apartment near his university. I think he really hates driving... (But, he will still need that old Nissan when he graduates one year later)

Life is really strange... When I was young, I always dreamed of driving a fast fun car like this Nissan...

However, the good thing is I don't need to worry that my son may have an accident when driving a fast car!!! (New male driver + 300hp + PSS10 = Accidents

)

5 years ago, my colleague passed his 1998 Camry 2.2 to his son... Guess what... His son kept pushing that old Toyota to the limit...

So, one year later, that Toyota was dead because of overheat!!! (Poor Toyota...)

So, my colleague had to pass his new leased Leaf to his son... Guess what... Again, 6 months later, his son had a major accident!!!

(Poor Nissan...) Luckily, no one was hurt...

In my opinion everyone could have a fun car no matter he or she is rich or not...

The first is to find a reliable car which has at least 200hp. (If the budget is allowed, you can also consider 300hp, 500hp or even more)
Secondly, put a good stiffer suspension like KW V3 or Ohlins DFV, bigger tires/sway bars, etc on the car.

Then, you can have fun with the car EVERYDAY... (It's not necessary the car has to be a new car)

Of course, with stiffer suspensions GSF is still a little better than G35S and G35S is still a little better than Maxima but in my opinion, they all are fun and respectful!!!

My son's 2007 G35S has always been maintained by myself... (I never took my son's G35S to any repair shops except one recall, tire replacement and PSS10/KW V3 installation)

Now it's 14.5 year old. So, this morning I decided to bring it to a good repair shop to do a full inspection...

That repair shop spent 1.5 hour to do a full inspection including a road test on my son's G35S. Guess what... The repair shop just told me that they couldn't find any problem on that Nissan!!! rock
