2002 Infiniti Q45

I would prefer for the car to be within driving distance of me. I'd rather a 5spd targa, but I'm open to auto/hardtops as well.The car must be pretty clean and MUST be daily driveable.________________________________________________________________________I'm looking to trade/sell my 2002 Infiniti Q45 with both the Premium and Sport package. It currently has about 149k and will go up since I daily drive the car.I've owned and driven the vehicle for only 2 weeks and in that time I've put over $1000 worth of work into it to make it safe and reliable. Here's a list of the work that's been performed while in my possession: Left front hub assembly/wheel bearing replaced, left and right inner and outer tie rod ends + alignment, oil change, repaired a major exhaust leak just after the center exhaust pipe, 4 brand new tires mounted and balanced, both headlight lenses were cleaned and refinished and a new engine air filter was installed.I'm selling the car for what I purchased it for and the new owner pretty much gets all the work that I just did for free, but I'd rather just do a flat out trade for a turbo MK3.The interior of the car is absolutely and completely loaded with every high end option possible. There are no major stains on the carpeting and the leather is all rip free with the exception of some normal wear.The exterior of the car has some dings and nicks in the paint. The only major damage is just in front of the left rear wheel well where it looks like someone scraped against a guard rail. Other than that, the exterior is in fair shape for a 11 year old car.Mechanically, the car is safe to drive. I drive it daily 35+ miles each direction. But there are some things that are currently in need of repair. I do know that the left exhaust manifold leaks a little but not enough where it affects power nor does it cause a CEL. The power steering pump is a little noisy but doesn't leak and the power steering works excellent. The right front wheel bearing makes noise (not a grinding, just a thumping noise) but I'll probably fix that myself before I sell/trade it. Also, the rear end sits a little lower than the front and I'm unsure if it's a result of weak shocks or if it's a simple issue of the rear air shocks not getting aired up by their source (maybe a leaky air line, not sure since I haven't looked at that yet) and lastly the air bag light is on.TEXT ME ONLY with any questions.TEXT ME ONLY on my mobile phone eight six 0 4 2 2 3 five three seven, I'll answer all texts immediately.The car has a rebuilt title because it was stolen back in 2008 (I have all the car-fax information printed out for any potential buyer to look at). It wasn't in any accidents, it was because of theft that it has this title. The car was recovered by the dealership and brought up to factory specifications. Contrary to popular belief, there are no issues registering the car whatsoever. In the state of Connecticut, a rebuilt car has to go through a very very thorough and extremely strict inspection process before it can be given a rebuilt title.I can show the car on the weekends and maybe a couple of nights during the week between 6:30pm-8pm. You will drive to me and meet me at a public place of my choosing. I will only accept 2 forms of payment: Cash or Bank Check. I will only sell the car face to face, so don't ask me to ship it for whatever other b*llsh*t because I'll ignore you. My price is very fair and relatively firm considering KBB puts the Trade-In fair value of the car at $4,845 with a clean title, so please don't come to my doorstep with offers of $3,900 and lower. (For comparison purposes, NADA puts the Average Trade-In value of the car at $5,400)"Fair:18% of all cars we value meet this criteria. This car has some mechanical or cosmetic defects and needs servicing, but is still in safe running condition and has a clean title history. The paint, body and/or interior may need professional servicing. The tires may need replacing and there may be some repairable rust damage."I'd also be willing to do a trade for something of equivalent value - Nissan 240SX S13 or S14 with a clean swap, MK3 Targa Turbo Supra, Subaru Sedan (no wagons except a Wrx wagon), maybe a clean pickup with a plow (must have full back seats). Please no rust buckets and nothing that needs significant amounts of work, looks like crap or is so heavily modified that I can't do the work in my driveway. I daily drive this car, I except to get into yours and be able to do the same.If there's something above that you have questions about, please feel free to contact me any time.
