Here we go again.
We cant tell if its worth it or not. we dont know the cars history. you did not provide any pictures. whats the car fax looks like.
Only you can decide if its worth it.
we dont know your financial situation. Can you afford 23k? whats your APR?
also, as time goes by these cars will get cheaper and cheaper.

Go get it inspected. if the mechanic says its mechanically sound. buy it.
Also, by reading your past threads, all the cars that you are interested in are around that price.
Pick one that is mechanically sound. by going to a mechanic to get it checked out.


I thought by now, you would get the picture. just have the car that you are interested in, inspected either by an acura dealer or an independent mechanic. your other thread gave details about CPO.

BE CONFIDENT IN YOUR PURCHASE.

just a tip, you've made 3 or 4 or 5 of these same exact threads. sooner or later, people are gonna stop replying to your question which is the same for every thread you made.

For someone such as myself who didn't get the car with Nav, I would say look for another deal with navigation.

The most important part is make sure the car has been serviced through Acura from day 1, 1 owner, no accidents, CPO. Also, when you narrow your choices down to 1 car do an autocheck. I know dealers provide carfax and it is a pretty reliable source also the autocheck checks out twice or more. Finally, make an offer within the range of the cars condition meaning what its valued at. Sometimes getting an extremely low priced TL can be a setup for issues down the road

If navi isn't important to you, get it. The price is reasonable. 3G TL will probably be bullet proof for years to come...Especially if the car has been serviced by an Acura dealer.
More that a year of original warranty left...if you need more, you can buy additional warranty.

I have an 06 TL with close to 80K miles on it. It still runs, and pretty much looks (except for some rock chips ) like new.
Bottom line...if you like the car, get it.

It's like carfax. Another form of buyer protection...history of the vehicle etc. http://www.autocheck.com

I mean it is totally up to you if you want to spend some money on getting reassurance. I did it so I know for sure and peace of mind. I just purchased an 06 TL 5AT w/o Nav Antharcite Metallic/Ebony interior with 61620 and it is CPO
