i've driven for both uber and lyft. uber is 2005+ (unless they changed it in the last 6 months) and lyft is 2000+.

i was looking for the same fun/decent gas mileage/4 door for daily and part time uber/lyft. for me it was pretty much between g35, g37, is300, is250, and gs350. g35 and is300 are generally more within your budget and cost less to maintain. idk how it is over there, but here like 80% of the is300's i've come across are salvaged title so that really took them out of the running. my lyft mentor (when you get approved by lyft you have to meet up with a "mentor" to make sure your car and your driving is safe before you can start driving for them) actually drove a g35 and said he'd put around 100k on it and only had to do fluids and tires. i had a z33 for a couple of years and drifted it and pretty much had the same experience. not to mention the vq35 was nissan's mostly widely used motor so even if anything did go wrong, parts are super abundant. tbh if i wasn't an idiot that's what i would have gotten, but i made the mistake of tracking down a manual is250 with seat coolers and was sold lol.

good luck btw. you gotta be willing to give up your social life if you want to make the big bucks doing ride share haha
