2013 infiniti G37x, 136k miles, this car is fun to drive and the drivetrain is bulletproof. Hope to have it for 4 or 5 more years.


I’ve got a G37x 164k miles on it and it was fun to drive. I will be getting something else after the first of the year but not sure what yet.

Wouldn’t mind a Genesis G70 with the 3.3T but not sure I want to spend that much for a work car that I’m going to put a bunch of miles on it. Still want something nice because I’ll be in it for 6 to 8 years.

I think my 05 Z71 might not make 300k. Starting to have lifter issues.

What do y’all recommend as a go by for mileage or age for getting any major maintenance done?
What’s important and not really important to make sure to do?

Just follow the book. That's not a long life for a modern vehicle by any stretch.
