Hey ziners, I randomly hopped onto the new York Craigslist and ran Into not one but two 2007 acura type s tl's... A red one with 130k miles and a blue with under 100... CRAZY low price.. Same dealership too! I would totally jump on them but I live in Seattle so they're literally across the country and I can't make the trip. Oh and yes, they both have clean titles according to the posts. You're Welcome!!

Dazment

Nice finds. Interesting how they're both being offered at the same price despite the KBP one having lower mileage and the A-spec kit, and of course being KBP, which appears to be the color coveted by most people who are looking to purchase a Type-S. Maybe the MRP one is in overall better condition...


Anyway, good luck with the purchase, and make sure you get it checked thoroughly.


BTW, that chromed out 06 TL in their inventory...WTF?!?!

Dazment

the blue one was sold already.. sigh :s

M.I.N.O.

Aww man tough break. Shouldn't have posted the ad on Azine lol.


Might be a good sign. Most of their cars have a sale price that is way lower than average. I know the ad says clean title, but I wonder if some of these cars may have a shady history. Hurricane Sandy cars perhaps...I don't know, but the prices just seem way too good to me. My two cents.

Dazment

Yeah their prices are RIDICULOUSLY low. How would I be able to make sure they aren't flood cars? I'll ask for the car fax and tell them to send me pictures of the Vin number on the car but otherwise any way I can make sure?

most likely salvage titled

Not sure if it's the same dealer but there was a thread here on AZ awhile back where a dealer in NY had crazy low prices advertised, but when you showed up to purchase, the price was wrong and was a typo. Suddenly the price was significantly more or you HAD to finance the car with them at some ridiculos interest rate. If its too good to be true, it probably is. I'm going to guess you saved yourself a lot of time, $$ and aggravation by the car being sold already.

WTF, a dealer put a car in their inventory like that? It blows my mind some of the things people do to their cars. Then a dealership tries to sell it like that? Haha. Do they not realize they can peel all that shit off and probably have a chance selling the car. Are they clueless?

OP, please save yourself the disappointment and grief and don't try and buy a beat up Type S from across the country and especially from a dealership like this. There is no telling what you are getting.

^^^^ JTS - someone did that to their car - on purpose. Dealer probably figures less they need to do to it the better - and there are other Jamokes out there that think is a nicely modded car. "There is one born every minute.".

Dazment

You guessed it! They called me this morning. They had a bblack 07 tl on there for 5.5k and I asked if they still had it and she was like no it sold last night, I asked why their prices were so low and she told me those are the prices after a significant down payment and if you finance with us and I was like HUH. She had a hot accent though
So I'm not completely mad hehehehe

Awesome LOL. Gotta love bullshit dealer tactics. Having a TL on the lot with all that chrome trim and listing cars at a price AFTER a down payment just takes the cake. Never buy a car from that dealer...whoever they are.

At least you know that AM TL had full protection from dings and scratches.

Or, it could covering them...

Americandream

yes your right, look up reviews for linden used cars. this is the same dealer, they do bait and switch. i live in ny and was planning on going to the dealership until i read reviews for linden used cars, their also D&a guaranteed......

looks good, but be careful!

M.I.N.O.

HAHAHA! I knew it was too good to be true!

NBP04TL4ME

Haha - like I saidmifmitsmtoomfoodmto be true - it probably is

This is a down payment that the dealer is making? Because last time I checked, a price is the amount that I have to pay, and the down payment is part of that. This is just like those people/dealers that post only the down payment amount on craigslist as the price of the car instead of the full price. I ignore any places and listings that do this.

That AM TL looks clean! lol.

It's as if someone told the previous owner "Hey bro! I love the lines of the TL! Beautiful car." So he robbed a Pep Boys and said LINES?? I'll show you lines!

hahah all the dealerships out here (nyc) have vary attractive girls working the front desk as a hook to sucker dudes in. and they also advertise low prices and then they get you in the door and add a bunch of bs to the sale price.. i went once to see a 17k tl type and they raised the price to 24k....needless to say i said FOH but the girl that worked there was a dime and called me repeatidly to come back and work something out but i told her naw..even though she looked like a young vida guerra i had to fight my manhood just to not get riped off..lol

truonghthe

some stealer also had fine print, "price is good with 3000 down payment" or "or cash at $xx,xxx". If its too good then stay away from it, this is what happend think they get a deal in a life time.

HaHa, I came across those same cars and that same dealer recently while shopping online for a 3G 6MT.
I called a good friend who lives in New Jersey, and he said about 3 times: Hurricane Sandy, Hurricane Sandy......

Then the dealership called me back later, and gee, it turns out, the price they were showing DID NOT include a $2500 down payment...
The girl did sound good though!
