Sellingn Tl Need Opinion....

Ok Let Me Start Off With Saying That I Was Big Into Cars But Not To Car Savvy When I Joined Acurazine, This Website Is Literally The Shit. You Guys Have Saved Me A Fortune And I Have Learned An Amazing Amount Of Info Not Just For The Tl But For All Of My Cars. Ok Thats Out Of The Way. Now I Would Like To Ask What Would Be A Good Price To Sell My 03tl-s Non Navi For? It Currentlty Has About 47,5xx Miles On It. I Have Had No Problems Since Day One And I Love This Car But Im Interested In A Mercedes Clk 430. Is That An Upgrade Or A Downgrade In Your Guys Opinion. I Really Like The Look And The Power The 430 Has But Im Kind Of Undecided On What I Want To Do. I Currently Still Owe On The Tl And Would Like To Make Some Money On The Sale But Dont Want To Overprice The Car. I Would Like To Sell The Car Privately Just To Save The Hassle On Taking Everything Off The Car.(aem Cai, Tein S Type Springs, Tockico Illuminas, Ingalls Camber Kit, Ect Ect.) So Like When I Needed Any Help Any Other Time Can You Guys Pitch Me Some Advice Or Opinions. Oh I Forgot I Owe 14,3xx Still On The Tl. Thanks.

Try Kelly Blue Book to get a idea what the car might sell for.

And, out of curiousity, why is the first letter of every word capitalized in your post? That makes it harder to read.

I would try 20K with everything you have and work your way down until you get some good offers. I was at a dealership today actually and oddly enough, my girlfriend was looking at 03 TL Type-S's. All of them, with over 50K miles, were at least $18.5K stock. Even more odd...they were ALL black

And screw the whole idea. Stay with the TL!

I think Im gonna stick with the TL i just recieved the xs power headers I completely forgo theat i even bought them. I know this is a little off topic but how many people have installed their headers with the stock gaskets? im a little iffy about using the same gaskets should i just wait and order some oem new ones id hate to install them and then get a leak. what do you guys suggest? I only have 47,5xx miles on my stock gaskets is that too much?

It's been said that the gaskets that come with those headers are kind of crumby. Order some new OEM ones if you want to be completely safe. Good luck.
