'07-'08 Manual Type-S Manuals

On Cars.com I did a search for 07-08 Type-S manuals.

I came up with 12.

8-NBP
1-WDP
1-CBP
1-ASM
1-MRP.

They range from $27,975-$13,000
Mileage from 27k-173k miles.

I test drove an NBP 07 Type-S manual with light grey leather and 72,000 miles. Mint in and out. $20,995. Drove like a new car !!! Good tires and new brakes. Non smoker, smelled almost new.

AutoTrader shows 22.


BTW, there is, technically, no "Light Grey" leather in the TL-S. It's either 2-tone Ebony/Silver or Taupe. I thought all NBP came with Ebony/Silver, but not positive on that. Taupe is kind of a light tan.

OK I will check them out
It is the light tan. It was so Sunny and very warm here in Northern IL today, the light color looked light grey (64 degrees out, warm breeze, almost Hot sun )

I found a few more 07-08 NBP Type-S close to me with the Light leather, but both were auto's.

Thanks again

Good luck with it. I broke my head for months trying to get a dealer to give me a decent price on a TL-S manual.

Dealers know that the car is OD rare, and therefore will make you pay more than you think you might have to.

Just a heads up.

If you can get a good deal though, go for it!

And then when you try to trade it in, dealers will tell you how your car is worth less because "no one wants a manual luxury car". They're such crooks.

The MRP isn't too far away from me if you want me to take a look at it.

I got my 07 NBP TLS 6MT with just under 31K miles, and paid $22,995. It was a rare find for sure, and I had to wake up at 5am and drive 4 hours from PA to VA to get it, but luckily I did because I beat 3 other ppl to it. It took me over 3 months of searching to find the right deal, but finally it showed up.

I understand

When they take a manual Type-S in trade they tell the person that it will be hard for them to sell a TL with a manual

Then when they sell it they say its RARE

Dealers lie so much.

Thanks

The one in Florida is an 07 NBP with ebony/silver leather and has 63k miles, they are asking $26,900. WAY TOO Much. $23,000 MAX IMO.

Look for private party deals and you'll save BIG $$$. The dealer CPO is worthless in my opinion.

I found my car through an ebay classified. I knew what it was when I saw it and had a deposit on it the next day (found it listed Sunday night). The guy got 3 calls while I was viewing the car. He had a lien, so I had to wait 2 painful weeks for the bank to get the title, but I basically stole the car ($18,500 w' 41k)

Don't feel bad, the car had pin stripes which are ugly IMO and it had some cosmetic damage in the front. I dont know if noticed that.
