Soo i'm about to buy a car. I have a choice between an 2004 Acura TL w/ 70xxx miles or a 2007 Honda accord w/17xxx miles. Both of these cars are a rebuilt title, thats why they are so cheap. Both cars are about $10,000 bucks too. I really wanted a Acura TL but the Accord Deal is nice too. So which one should i choose??? Yes i know i shouldnt buy a rebuilt or salvage car, but hey i dont have the money to get a certified or pre-owned Tl or accord. No negative comments please, i just want your opinion.

ps. sorry if i posted in the wrong place. Im a newb

I am voting for the accord.

I currently drive an 04 TL but I drove an accord before that and LOVED it. I actually still have an older accord that I drove before that. You cannot go wrong with any Honda product but I voted for the accord because it has a lot lower milage and it alot newer.

imo you should watch our for salvages or rebuilts though just my Good Luck and Welcome!!

find out what kind of damages happened to both to make them rebuilt. imho- it's important to know 'how' the car was damaged.

all things being equal- i picked the accord, it's newer and it's got less miles. the 04 tl w/ 70k miles and a rebuilt title is honestly overpriced imho.

I agree with ggesq.

The TL is definitely overpriced for a salvage title. It sounds like you're making the decision based at least a little on cost, and the Accord would be a stronger value simply because it's newer and has FAR fewer miles.

Is the Accord a V6 or not? That's kind of important...

hi I would not buy any of those. You do not know what was wrong. Maybe do more research and acuras's transmission is out of warranty. Cheap is too expensive

UGH! i know. the accord is a better, but i wanted the TL sooo bad.. the tl is a beauty!!

Yeah but don't let your "want" force you into a bad decision. Like everyone said, the Accord would be the better option if you HAD to get one but it is always a crap shoot with rebuilt titles. Take some time, think carefully and you will make the right choice.

I have an accord and its pretty bad ass. get is I4? or v6 if its I4 go for it. if not the tl would be your best bet.

you should not get either one but, if you have too choose get the accord its newer and alot less miles. like Piotr_w said cheap is too expensive. save your money for a little while longer and im sure you can find at Clear tittle TL for a good price.

thanks everyone, i have to make a decision by next week. ima tst drive the tl MONday

I just bought a rebuilt title '04 TL with 36k miles and paid 11k. I would only get the TL if you can get it down to $9k

leedogg

when they say rebuilt, what does that encompass? the engines? who knows how many miles are actually on it and how old it is...

Accord!

tl_rox

I agree...Accord on this one! But dang, i bet OP is thinking how beautiful the TL is

why not get something for 10,000 that isn't salvaged and not have to worry about any problems? Im sure you can find an accord for around $10,000 bucks just a drop a few years. I think that would be the safer and best way to go. Hell im trying to sale my Civic in southern california with upgrades if you want it. Coupe haha

$10,000 down on a Certified Clean 06 TL and make 300$ payments a month for 36 months! You won't regret it! But hey my cousin bought a salvaged title TL, but didn't have that many miles but he bought it for 19k with 40k miles, sounds like a rip-off, but hell he wants to keep it and never sell it until it dies and its running great after 50k miles

TheChamp531, your cousin really got it good.
