Sold my baby today.

Well it was fun while I had it. I had the chance to mod it almost how i wanted it, SC was not available. Time has come to move on. I'll still visit the forum and it was a great experience reading and learning so much about the TL/TLS while I owned my baby. You guys have been great and I will still come to the DC area meets. Good Luck everyone and enjoy the ride!

Nah, the M5 won't arrive til next Feb. We sold the TL so we can look at the MB E430 Sport, BMW X5 4.4 Sports Package, or whatever else we can think of. I test drove the MDX yesterday and was a bit disapointed so I think that is out of the question. We'll see since we're leaning towards the X5.

No mods. Remember I sold all my aftermarket stuff except the fog lights. I had the spoiler and kit and the dealer took all that.

I'm ready to get rid of mine as well. I like it, but I'm ready for something a little more exciting.

Mine also might be going pretty soon, although it isn't because I am ready for something different or because I want to step up. It is because of financial reasons.

I wonder if the time comes and I am forced to get rid of mine, if Tim will let me stay mod.

For what it's worth, I had 32100 miles on my 2000 and I straight up sold it to the dealer for $21,850. Didn't want to muck with ad in the paper and dealing with banks, etc. A trade would have been ideal but considering I'm looking at German cars, I think they would have r@ped me on the trade so I sold it an Acura dealer. Believe it or not all the HONDA dealers I called wanted my car, but all were around $21,500. CarMax too far from my house.

Damn that sucks dude. Don't be a stranger!

You know, now ppl can buy wood wheels for their TL for about $400... My Inspire one ended up costing waaay more, as I had to get it dyed on top of paying the extra $$ for the Inspire one.

Nate, I too feel your pain. I bought my Inspire tail lights for 495 plus shipping However, I did have it a year and a half before they put them on the 2002's. All in all, I am still happy I bought them.
