Everything happens for a reason I guess. The first buyer couldn't get approved for funding, a "cash buyer" flaked out and a local guy never made the trip up to pick it up (maybe due to snow) but either way, I have decided to keep my car for now. I just got it detailed and took a few pics.

I have a 2003 X50 and I love it. Car has 27K on it and even the wife enjoys it. A win win for me. She does hate the 951, solid suspension kills her back. Me, I love it especially around corners.

Looks better in Silver. Glad you can keep it a little longer! I like those green calipers.

I was going to give it away for $31,500 (thinking I was trading it in) but the guys flaked out. Then, the trade option fell through as I ended up getting a different Infiniti (from SW in Austin) rather than trading for a local one. I may put it back up for $33k firm come spring but for right now, I am keeping it. I just hit 72k miles

Thanks guys. I figured it wouldnt sell in a matter of days but someone would have gotten a steal at $31,500 if they would have pulled the trigger.

I will just drive and enjoy it as intended. SW hooked me up on my Infiniti so it did not break the bank as anticipated.
