Hello everyone,

I am new here.. long time lurker though, I am in the market for a new USED car and I really love how the tsx look. I still don't know if this is a good price for it or not.

04 TSX blue
74k Miles
non-navi

thanks

 

I think you forgot the price...

 

yes i did...sorry dealer say 15k

 

It doesn't sound too bad depending on condition. I'd only be interested if it was the 6mt, but that's me. Is this a CPO car?

 

Sorry newbie.. What is CPO... is auto..which fit my taste...

 

Hello.

Welcome, if you do get a TSX, you'll be very happy.

Looks like your deal is right about average.

I can see better deals, I can see worse deals.

I see one here that's a 2004 with only 47,000+ miles on it for $15,500.
I see another here that's a 2004 with 74,000+ miles going for $16,900.

Quite a difference really.

It's not just miles and the year, it's what kind of miles.
Condition of the car, maintenance, all sorts of stuff.

I can't say if that's a good deal or not, but it's not a bad one.
Seems pretty average really. Drive the car, check it out really closely.
If you like it alot, I say buy it. There is a chance you can find a better
deal though if you do some searching.

 

No one said it yet

CPO = Certified, Pre Owned

 

car is pre-owned..

 

i would say if its ceritfied preowned and the acura dealership is treating you well go for it! CPOs got a 7 yr/100 mile powertrain warranty from acura so you cant really loose.

 

id try to get it for 13-14k

to clear up what they mean by CPO
certified pre owned- inspected and warrantied by acura
pre owned- yea just pre owned

if its a CPO id hit it with 15k!

 

You didn't mention if this is at your price point. If you can go a little higher, I'd suggest looking for an 05. Way too many tales of woe on this forum from 04 owners for me to even suggest considering one. And I see you're interested in an auto. Smart move if you're considering a car with that many miles on it.

 

well guy....it is actually a pre-owned.. and is not even at an acura dealer...still hit it?? man I read it wrong. I thought it was 15 OTD...but the guy say 15 plus fees...how much am I suppose to expect if they don't work with me on the price?

 

Location has allot to do with it too (supply and therefore pricing). Not knowing were you're located, any advice here will be generic. High resale is a well known advantage of the TSX, but nothing is worth more than someone will pay for it. I'd suggest looking around some more, compare asking prices, and decide what you're willing to pay relative to that. Any non-Acura dealer that's selling a TSX most likely got it one of two ways. Either a trade or at an auction. And either way, he's almost certainly in it for short money. If you like the car, make a lowball offer. Remember, when you make a low offer, as long as it's not insulting, the worst than can happen is a seller won't take it. And you can work from there. Again, remember, that when buying once you make an offer, you can always go up (but once your offer is on the table, it's unlikely a seller will go down from there).

 

thanks for all the tips guy. I will update you guy wih this by the end of this week.

 

Welcome to AZ!! Good luck on your purchase. Also like your ham radio callsign K3VIN.

 

hey guys,

i am having a hard time finding some Vin sticker in the hood. how many are there suppose to be in the hood. i am having a hard time finding the vin on the fender too.

 

its in the bottom right of the windshield.. its a little steel plate that has a series of numbers and letters

 

i saw that but what about in the engine bay ?

 

Hello,
The vin should be on both fenders and on the hood. As others have suggested, get a cpo and get a 05 and newer. Good luck
