Off topic slightly, but is this generation of G35 still a good buy for a fun/weekend car? I imagine they will need some maintenance given the age/mileage, but anything catastrophic?

^ Other than typical VC leaks, I know the VQ's are pretty reliable! Higher mileage ones will burn oil, so just have to watch out for that. I find these cars, along with 350z's, very easy to work on as well.
Most of them end up in the hands of Surrey teenagers & are completely rat-bagged by now. Would be worth waiting for a cared-for example.

these 90's / 2000's cars look so refreshing compared to the modern day behemoths we have rolling around.

Look at that integra inside the “small car” parking stall. Ample space on both sides. I don’t recall the integra being super small on the inside either. A whole crew of nammers used to pop out of one and roll on people so I’m sure it had enough space

Either its clear coat or primer paint is chipping off from car washes... Trying to figure out if i can live with it until i get a new car or some DYI techniques..
