An OG's TL - 11 years and 170,000 miles

It's been forever since I've posted pics. Nothing really new. Found a nice set of Accord wheels which I stripped and had powdercoated earlier in the year.

This is how she stands @ 11 years and 170,000 miles.

Nope, the wife drives a Sienna.

There should be some American muscle (cougarmobile) in the garage sometime next year

Not worth the effort. I've had this setup for far too long.

Seats are still in great shape. I have all-weather mats so that keeps the carpets nice.

I have two car seats in the back and they've been rough on the rear seats. Mostly dents.

Still looking great! I'm in the market for some new wheels for my 2000 TL. Can't decide if I want to get a set of OEM Honda / Acura wheels or go with aftermarket wheels. After seeing your pics I am leaning more towards OEM Honda / Acura wheels. Great Job of keeping it clean!
