2006 G35 Coupe with a Turbonetics, single turbo system. Most every option including the pop-up navigation, sun roof, memory seats... History: I bought this car and used it to travel for work, several trips between Michigan/California/Arizona. I had a Turbonetics system installed at a shop in Lake Forrest, CA when it had around 30K miles ($9,000). After the install I continued to use it as a daily driver and even did 2 cross country trips with it. Suffice it to say, the milage is mostly highway (put 50,000 miles on a set of Nitto's, thats how soft I drive it). The car has been extremely reliable, before and after the turbo install. Mechanical condition: The car has been sitting in my garage since 2010, undriven. It was running fine when I parked it, but I consider this a bit of a project since it will require some TLC to get it back on the road. I assume the fuel system will need to be cleaned out and there is a oil blow-by issue with the dip stick and possibly a hose. When the engine is under boost, it smokes. This sort of thing has happened maybe 2 or 3 times since the turbo install, but this is not one of the engines that has an oil consumption problem, it doesn't use a drop between changes. One of the issues is the oil level stick, it just needs a better one. The other issue was a loose hose under the car I had fixed 3 or 4 years ago. I would think this problem is one similar since I have never driven the car hard and rarely got into the boost for more than a few seconds. The other thing it probably needs is a computer re-flash. It was running fine, but it hasn't had a tune since 2008. The car has no rattles, shakes squeeks, drives and handles like new. Physical condition: I am the second owner (purchased in 2008 with <15K miles). I purchased brand new TSW 19" rims with Falken 35/19/245, 275 (front, rear). They have less than 300 miles on them ($2600). It also has a brand new Seibon hood, trunk lid, inner cooler front end, all in clear coat carbon fiber ($2800). The front clip has a scuff on the bottom that will be an easy repair if you choose and the new body work needs small fitment adjustments, I installed the new parts and then parked the car never getting back to it. The interior is very clean with very light wear, I almost never had passengers. The front windsheild needs replacement, got cracked somehow during storage. I personally believe that this car needs no more than $2500 - $3000 to be a perfectly sound daily driver that reliably puts down 350+ RWHP, just like before I put it away. The carbon fiber is top of the line and accents the car very well. No spoiler trunk lid and it just looks like it means business. The car is considerably faster than stock (+125 Wheel HP). Why I am selling: I simply do not have time for this. It has been in my garage for nearly 3 years and I will not have time to finish it in the forseeable future. I just want it out of my garage. I am not a mechanic and there isn't a shop that could support what I need done within' 300 miles. I have loved this car since the day I bought it and absolutely hate to get rid of it. I am an out of state traveling worker and really can't have the attachment of a project car at this point. I truely believe that this car would be a good buy up to $12K since the upgrades alone (Carbon Fiber, Rims/Tires, Turbo, Meth Injection) were a $14,000 investment. I am starting the bidding very low with no reserve because I want it sold and because it will require a modest investment to get it back on the road. The car is located in Eureka, CA but still has a Michigan title (I'm a dual resident). It will not pass CA smog and is being sold "As Is". The buyer is responsible for shipping/pick up. $500 deposit upon auction close with the remainder paid within 5 days please. Good luck.
