Hi every one. i recently sold my wifes acura integra in order to buy her a tl. i have done a little reserch on these cars. in order to find there problems recalls ect. the only real problem i see is the tranny warrentied until 109k. the one i am looking at has 88k 03 tl type s black tan int.navi dealer will supply "extended warrenty". i checked it out today dealer was closed but i sawit was lowerd, cross drilled sloted rotors, mugen rear spoiler. i will go tomorow talk numbers with the dealer (14,500). also i found modified rear wheel wells the inside lip.. since the car is lowerd dont kno what springs they were silver, i was thinking H&R's .. car dosnt look camberd out. i will supply more info and how much car should go for..also things i should look for..i wouldnt pay more then 12k for it. but we will see what happens. thanks. i hope to read any info.. ill have pics tomorow. and im still searching for more information.

link to pics please dont go out and buy the car before me that be wrong!

 

Thats a clean car but the price yea work on that. I bought mine from a major dealership but i buy all my cars from Honda so.... Its already lowered so your set!

 

thanks i am definitly going to work on that price.. ive been looking for a black one with tan int for about 3 weeks now.. i found decent ones or regular tl non type s.. she really wants tan int.. theres a lot of silvers she dosnt want that and whites dosnt like the color.. so black is a winner..any oil leaks i should look for in certain spots.. what gear do the trannys maily messup on or slip.. or do they just go bad car dosnt move?

 

Im not sure about that i only have 65k on mine when i bought it i had 63k got it in september. Yea listen for the belts and look to see if any oil is dripping. White those are the best colors WDP! I was looking for a TL for about a month and finally i called my dealership and they said lets see if we can find one and they did. Thats how mine came stock with those ugly rims LOL!

 

yaea these cars look crazy sick.. i cant wait to start modding hers.. since all of my cars are done

 

son of a bitch....that thing has a mugen spoiler lucky bastard ....i would get it although i think the price is a bit high

 

Im getting a mugen spoiler there not that expensive i like how its lowered i wonder what drop that is and what brand? try to find out how many inches

 

the mugen spoiler is not available anymore, very rare to see one.

 

Well im getting one i found it. I must be lucky then

 

Are you positive that the extended warranty applies? The 2003 model year is unique in that not all TLs are covered by the extended warranty. Coverage depends on the car's VIN number.

 

ok talk getting it for 13 tranny has been replaced by cura with exteded warrenty from acura has comptec springs and sway bars. injen intake ful audio system viper alarm I left 3500 deposit till friday.. it was his personal car

 

sorry i typed that up on my phone. and my wireless key bord at home suks also. so if you see any mistakes . oops.. blame logitech!

so good so far..

 

That looks so mint, and with some tasteful worthwhile mods. Tranny has already been replaced as well...You've found quite the deal there; hopefully you can get him down to a good price for you.

All the best, and if you make the deal, welcome to the forums!

 

Well if it is in fact a mugen you are very lucky if you are getting it for under 1k. That is the premium they are fetching.

 

Mmmm Mugen

 

 

price is a little high...but car looks really clean. I see he mounted tweeters in the doors too..looks nice.

Good that tranny has already been dealt with.

Make sure both heated seats work...one thing I didnt check on mine before purchasing.

 

wow, mugen wing, like the moderator said that's like $1k right there!! And sway bars springs, and intake are about $200-$300 each set (used). I'm not sure about the price for the brakes though.

It's a really sweet car and you will have a lot of fun modding it! If I were you I would buy the OEM body/lip kit (perhaps you can ask the dealer if they have it and if they will include it, if you are lucky).

 

thanks fellas i already put a order in for the lip kit.. see how it looks the car is extreamly clean heated seat work also.. wow mugen lip is that much..hope fully on friday ill have it.. it has focal components ft and rear doors.. tweeters in same location ft and rear.. hiddin amps digital eq reverse camera, cap, bass control to factory subb... my wife loved the car.. so its a definit plus

 

if the wife is happy, then so r u ...nice car..

 

Hmm, wonder what those 2 black buttons to the right of the steering wheel do...

But yeah, very nice car to start off with!

 

one its a by pass ofr movies ect.. other is by pass camera

 

sell your mugen wing you will have people going crazy LOL Jk yea i got mine for 850 out here in Sacramento hella lucky my import store can find almost anything!!

 

Awesome, good to know that you are getting the lip kit! Once the lip kit is on, you may want to change out the exhaust tips as the stock ones will look tiny and out of place. You can go cheap (like me) and get some 3A (or 3A style) tips (mine are slanted 3.5" and I think they looK great without being ricey) for like $30. Or if you prefer, get the ATLP cat-back exhaust, but that's $950 and your wife probably doesn't want it..lol..

Oh..perhaps you can also to blackout headlights too!

 

he is going to give me black outs also with the car. were kind of tired of loud cars want something quiet but if i see the need for bigger tips ill get some from magnaflow weld them on to stock exhaust..
her old car.
my race car.. hand built by me..

 

he will give you blackouts? What do you mean? The films? I'm talking about painting the inside of the headlight housing.

Wow, her integra is pretty low...

and please correct me if I'm wrong, but is that a sunbeam?

friday mid day if all goes well... ive been just reserching on the site reading more on car makeing a list of things i want to do.. already spoke with my painter to paint my lip kit.. of corse for free he sponsers all my painting. i cant wait i litraly wake up thinking about the car i did leave 3500 down payment for him to hold it..

 

lol it would be great if you can somehow fit that big turbo from your corolla into the TL and get it to work haha!

 

that be sweet i was actualy looking at super charger kits.. thinking about it.. the turbo on the corolla is a hx45 pro holset turbo 6 blade pro wheels titanium shaft full t4 69 a/r 72mm up front all work was done by bullseye turbos.. man one more day!!

 

that spoiler sells for 1000+ dollars... you should buy it.but make sure its not a salvage title

 

Yea, S/C sounds goods to me!

 

on the way to the dealer wish me luck..

 

I am sure you will come home with it, cars are not selling so stick to your price !!! Good Luck
