Please welcome me.....

Hello AZ family. I'm a new member as of 10 minutes ago. I have been reading a lot of the post today doing research. Lots of great info out here, lots of knowledge. I will be purchasing my first TL next week. A 2002 TL Type S with 60k from Carmax. It should arrive around the 24th. It was listed for $14,998. I think the blue book is about $17,000. I think it was a good deal but I will definitely look her over once it arrives. She is coming from the Carmax in CT. Hopefully the cold climate was too hard on her. I wonder which is harder on our cars, cold climate or hot? I was already excited about the purchase but since I started reading the post on here, I'm really psyched about it. I also have a 1995 Legend that I have had for about 5 years and currently has 148k miles on her. Its my 3rd Legend. I hope to have the TL just as long. I look forward to choppin it up with you guys and gals. I will take some pics after she arrives and I will post them.

Thanks dude, I plan to do just that. My Carmax warranty is 48k miles but I will definitely read it carefully before I finalize anything. I hope that I luck out and the TL is as solid as my legend. Its still on the original engine and tranny after 147k.

LOL, Thanks... I'm not really into the mod thing, I do enjoy checking out the mods on other cars but its not for me. It will stay pretty much stock except for maybe some light tint. I do want to put a little more wood grain down near the shifter but that will prolly be the most that I do. And keep it clean and serviced of course.

Welcome to the site, and as everyone said please post pics of both cars. This is a great site with a lot of info. Play around with the search feature and you will be surprised at what you can find here.

Ohh and when I got my TL, I said I wasn't going to mod it either, but umm that didn't work out too well.

Welcome. I guess i could say but this is my first post too!


I also just bought a 2002 tl type-s with about 53k on it. So far i love it no complaints.


On a side note, i live in CT and never had any problems due to weather with any car i ever had, but then again i dont have to much to compare it too since i lived here my whole life.

anywho. enjoy the new Ac Sir!
