Thinking of 99 3.2tl

Hello everyone, im thinking of getting a 99 3.2tl. Im selling my 2000 Solara v6 because i got a good price for it. But that thing wasnt the fastest. I got beat by a stock auto jetta vr6. Do you think the 99 3.2tl is a great car? How does it compare in terms of quality and fastness to the Solara. Im hoping ill beat the vr6 btw. Thanks

Look, the 99TL is an awsome car to drive and enjoy. The peformance out of it is decent. But if you really wana get a car that has great performance potential, get an rsx, or a jetta 1.8T or even a gti 1.8T. With the VW shit you can chip your car and add all kinds of shit so that you'll be boostin like 25lbs. Then you'll be mad quick. In compairison to all these sport compact tuner cars, the TL is just plain old SHITTY, unless maybe you have a supercharger in it or a custom turbo setup. Even then the TL is just a fucken heavy car and was never designed to compete with sport compact tuner cars so think about what exactly it is that you want. If you just want a better engine then your solara then deff GET A 99TL. If you want luxry but be able to make it sporty then get the 99TL. But if you dont want luxury that much but you want a fast fucken car, then go for the jetta 1.8T's or GTI's. Those things are sickly fast with mods on em or even an RSX that has work done is sick. I love my 99TL. I'ma ride it till the wheels fall off. I'll probably never sell mine, even once i get a brand new car.

Yea, im not just getting a car to beat the VR6. I want a new car something thats more fun than the solara. I was considering either a 99tl or even a 5th Gen prelude.
