If you're only searching Infiniti then you are missing the other 30% listed as Infinity.
There is a very nice '95 Q45 currently listed in Washington DC.

Firebird camaro comoro camora comero v6 1500. 15601
I want a 4th gen engine trans combo for my rx7.
Anybody want a rust free good condition 2nd gen na rx7 with rebuilt engine with a harness problem? 2k. Offer me sum cashish...
I am so glad you're on the other coast right now. I get the FC jones from time to time and the last thing I need is another distraction in the garage right now
My top CL searches are:
Alfa Romeo (and subsequent misspellings)
Lada
Trabant
Sometimes I've been known to search by price. My range is always $123-$1234. There's always some gems in that one
Cars & trucks under 4k, manual. I enjoy browsing this selection just to see what's floating about with a manual for under 4 grand these days.
I have alerts for some specific quests, such as pre '90 caravans or voyagers within 500mi, dodge +spirit any year, volvo ads containing "1800", and fiat -500 in the hopes that one day I will locate an x1/9 without having to look at a million ads for a fiat 500. Also seeking a Toyota grill badge from an early FJ for an upcoming Satoshi mod for the 4runner.
What wizardy are you using to search within a radius? or just going through all the different areas?
