Opinions needed.....

Looking for RL with low mileage. Local guy has 05 with 41500 miles. He is second owner. Price is fair at 21000. My concern is he is 2nd owner and has only owned for about 1 year. He claims he is selling so he can buy a 2010 model. Doesn't it seem wierd he's only owned it for a year and already is selling?

Anything i should look for?

Some people just can't make up their mind so the reason behind him selling after a year may not be an issue, but.......I would not buy an '05 with two owners. Only because it's the first production year.

You might want to wait and find an '06 since most of the bugs were corrected by then.

Take some time and read the "Garage" sticky at the top of this forum. It is a wealth of information and gives you all the service bulletins for specific years. That way can check if the car you are interested in had the required services.

Thanks for the reply. I am also looking at an 06 one owner so that may be the way to go. If there are service bulletins and its in warranty does acura fix @ no cost to me?
