Thinking about buying 2000 TL, any advice?

I'm thinking about buying a 2000 Acura RL with 125,000 miles. I'm trying to find out if these are good cars. Will I get many more miles out of this car?

What should I be aware of? Any known issues with these cars?

These are excellent cars. Just make sure the timing belt has been done. You can get another 75K out of the car easy with proper maintenance. About the only common problem on these are main relays, fuel filters and window regulators. All DIY projects that do not cost a lot of money. Good luck!

Your title doesn't match your question. Do you want to know about an RL or TL?

Heh.. I just bought a 00 RL with 125k on it, so this post is completely relevant to my interests. Got it after my 03 TL-S finally ate it's own transmission (like they do). Got 200k out of it tho, so I'm pretty sure I came out ahead in this one.

But back to the RL..

I'm going to want to tighten up the suspension, and add IHE in the near future. What's the aftermarket support looking like, and what are my best options?
