I am going to drive two privately owned RLs tomm. Both 05s with 60xxx miles. Those of you with 05s and/or knowledge of their problem areas, can you throw out a few things that I should be looking for? Listening for? Any tell tale signs that the electrical gremlins are there and thye are just trying to dump it on someone? The are both asking around 17k (one actually has closer to 80k but is certified to 100k).

What is a goos starting negotiating price?

 

This should help you:

or consider an 06 which took care of most of the TSBs issued on the 05's.

Regardless of the year, you want to check into the one recall on this car, the power steering hose could leak and cause a fire..that is taken care of by Honda for free.

 

^^thanks guys I will bring a list of some of those thing highlighted in that thread
