Good Buy?

Need some input guys. 120K miles? I just totaled my Toyota 4runner and am looking hard at this Acura. Do you guys recommend?

Thanks, Joe

I guess it doesn't say on the website what model it is? What's the options and also 120K on an Acura- I'm fine right?

i wouldnt drop 10k on a 99. go for at least a 2000-01, which at least has the 5 speed auto. If you go for that one, i'd get them to drop the price a bit. my

Thats a nice car. It's just like mine. Fire Pepper Red, but I dont have black interior...... I wish I did though. Anyway, I bought mine at 115,000 miles for $10,100. Car runs great, only had my steering pump bearing explode cause I overtightened the tension. But no serious issues. I love my car.

I bought it! I'm only 17. Got it for 9500. My dad has an 06 nav. He also had an 02 a few years back. I already love it! So much quicker then my 4runner (which i really loved to) but so far I like the car alot! Thanks guys!

110k for 10g's? 8'gs is a good deal unless its amazing condition. i got my 99 with 98k for $9,700 in good condition from a dealer. the tl is a great car but see if u can work on that price.

Umm hmm I believe it is a tad bit too expensive but oh wells I guess the car is bought, no need to feel regretful or make him or her regret what they bought I guess. Enjoy the car

It's in very good condition. Leather is very clean, looks like nobody was ever in the back seats. Everything works. Brand new tires and there are no scratches. It's only had 1 owner and he was an older guy. But yeah I enjoy it so far. The only bad thing is that the cup holder on the console where it closes (the 2 little panel thing. That doesn't close but I figure it I can possibly fix it somehow but it's not really a big deal to me.
