its not a type S. it has the wrong headrests on the front seats. Also that color was not avaliable for a type S in 2003.

2003 TL-S colors:
Aegean Blue Pearl
Anthracite Metallic
Nighthawk Black Pearl
Noble Green Pearl
Satin Silver Metallic
White Diamond Pearl

yeah but read the description, its a 2000TL fully modified to a Type-S engine, cluster and has 99-01 rims. Lights converted to 02-03 he is advertising it as a 03.

It must of taken a nasty hit to the front. Look at the front door compared to the rear door. The color matching is terrible. I'd stay away from that car.

..moron 2-toned the wrong side of the interior trim. If he was going for the JDM look, he would've done it properly, like this.

x2 I'd just get the real thing. Wouldn't it be cheaper to sell this and buy a genuine 2003 type-S?

It doesn't look like there are any fogs in that bumper either. Probably a wrecked TL and got the body shop to put in a different motor/trans and an 02/03 front end... I'd stay away from this car.
