looking to buy acura tsx

hi, im looking to buy a acura tsx i came across a 2004 onewith 175k km clean title for 9000. i live in vancouver bc if that helps, would this be a good buy? or is it a little high? also how long do these cars last, never owned an acura before

thanks

My 04 is at 156 k miles (252k km) and still runs like new. Used cars should always undergo a PPI but a well maintained TSX can still be in great shape at the mileage you're looking at. Well documented service history is important. 04's have been more prone to AC failures, oil burning, headunit display failures, and all TSX's are prone to OEM brake rotor warping. Also consider that right at your mileage is when Acura recommends some more major services like coolant replacement, spark plugs, and if needed, valve adjustment.

Agreed with above. Check KBB. I have found my TSX to be a very nice ride, but 9000 for a car creeping up on ten years with 175000 seems a bit high for me.

TSXs in Vancouver tend to go for a lot so $9k is pretty reasonable for the area.

175k km is about 110k miles, hardly high

You won't find a TSX in Vancouver for less than $12k so this is pretty reasonable
