He's in his thirties, didn't race the car period, and doesn't speed much if at all. He said he's driven it hard sometimes but isn't that what it's supposed to be able to handle? The dealer did all the work on it... I dunno but ever since he told me that I've thought badly about the 3.5

As someone else mentioned the 05-07 6MT g coupes and 05-06 G sedan have the "rev-up" engine which nissan messed up on. Some of those engines had oil consumption issue. Experimenting with something that in my opinion wasn't done a lot of research on was bad move by nissan. Other than those 2 years those engines have been bulletproof.
