Recent stuff:
01/15:New Continental DWS all-season 245/45-17 on OEM wheels (tires have less than 5k on them)
07/15: New compliance bushings, SPC rear camber arms (adjustable), OEM front sway bar end links, alignment
11/15 113k miles: Aisin TB kit, OEM thermostat, Upper/lower radiator hoses, OEM drive belt tensioner (I replaced plugs in 2012 @ 77k miles)
04/16:New Continental DW Summer tires 235/40-18 (fronts are already getting down there!)
06/16: New Centric front rotors and Racing Brake RB 500 pads (rears were done 3/13 @ approx 88k miles)
07/16: New AC compressor field coil
08/16: Two Stage paint correction/headlights restored
Redline 0w-20 and Royal Purple synthetic filter every spring.
Recall for power steering hose was done.
Everything works EXCEPT Bluetooth HFL module has been removed. In early 2014 I went through the interior and replaced close to $200 in burned out bulbs (center stack etc). Also, one of the TPMS sensors shows an error on the OEM wheels due to Dorman aftermarket sensors. This one will likely eventually program on its own, as did the other three. The sensors in the Forgestars work perfectly fine.
11. If leased, provide details, such as length of lease, payoff amount, etc. I own it
12. Modifications: Performance: RV6 HFPC, XLR8 V2 Jpipe and resonated catback, TL-SHAWD manifold, ported ZDX throttle body, ported lower runners, 4" Airaid UBI intake,UR stock diameter pulley,Hondata Flashpro with '08 Type-S 6MT ECU. E-Tuned by Vit Viper, 21 lb Braille battery (Includes an OEM battery as well)
Wheels, suspension,brakes: Koni Yellow adjustable shocks and H&R Sport springs (installed 4/11 approx. mileage in low 60,000 range), Progress RSB, SPC adjustable rear camber arms, XLR8 60a motor mounts (front/side are installed, rear is still in box), Forgestar F14 18x8.5 (+33 front/+26 rear) with Continental DW summer tires, 235/40-18, Centric rotors, Racing Brake RB 500 pads, Comptech short shifter, Moddiction Anvil shift knob.
Misc: Redline armrest cover, OEM A/S mats, E-Bay lip spoiler, '07-08 OEM tails (stocks included) 35% tint (rear quarters done completely),Osram CBI headlight bulbs, full V-LED interior.license plate lighting.
I hate to do it, but it's time to move on. Car has been exceptionally reliable. The only two things to really ever "break" in my nine years of ownership were the AC field coil and a power window regulator that was replaced under warranty back in 2008. Car has seen little winter use, but I make up for the mileage in the nice weather. Car has no dents/dings. Front end was painted in 4/13 due to rock chips etc, and is looking very good. Paint correction just done in August at Perfection Auto Deailing in Rochester, NY. Interior is exceptional. No torn leather, spotless carpets, perfect dash. Always cleaned and conditioned. Car tracks straight and true, shifts, steers and brakes perfectly, and is rattle free. (And it's much quicker than a stock TL, Type-S or otherwise) Still on original clutch, axles, ball joints. F14 wheels are in exceptional condition.OEM wheels were refinished in 11/08 and have no curbage, but some minor touch up from light chipping/ scratching from tire swaps.
OEM precats, jpipe, third cat, exhaust, CAI, tail lights come with the car if desired. The OEM suspension and OEM manifold and throttle body do not, as I no longer have those.

You're a key player in the mechanical aspect of it, Paul! Car is stronger than ever at 131k miles. Hasn't missed a beat in the 18k miles since you did the 105k service (I can't believe I've done 18k in the last year) Still nice and tight with the new compliance bushings too. I wish I'd done them sooner!

Swapped out wheels and tires a few weeks ago for the winter. DWS are like new! When changing the wheels, I did notice the rear brake pads were getting down there, so I picked up a set of Duralast Golds, which I'll put on at some point soon. Also just passed NYS inspection last Thursday, so all is well there.
Anyway, price drop to $6700 or $6000 without the Forgestars!
