2004 vs. 2005 vs. 2006 vs. 2007

well i'm tired of waitin and 07 isnt as great as i thought it would be looks nice but nothin too special so i will just buy a used one til maybe 09 or so. I been searching to see if i could see big difference between them all and cant really find much plus my net is way to slow to be looking through all these different post. Can anyone just give me a little info on the differences between the TL as the years have past between the 04-07. I see some good deals on 04's and 05's. Figure i might as well grab one of those in the next couple of months since 07 isnt that big a difference if anything i could just buy a type-s things and stick it on the back of my car (naw just playin). Thanks in advance.

probably find some great deals on 04's and 05's, and I assume even the last of the new 06's. I have an 04 and there is only one rattle but it seems to be hit or miss. I'd go new if it came down to it

05 changed the seat cushions and the seat belt mounting a little. 06 added TPS for the tires. I think that's about it. I would suggest a new 06 if you can find one and get a great price, the depreciation is fairly low so you can't save but about $5-6,000.

well on an 05 i can save about 10 g's maybe even more wit very low miles, in the 20 g's. TPS is cool but i dont think i need it that bad figure i might as well go for the 05 or maybe 04 if i dont car about seats and crap like that. out of those 3 do they have aux inputs??

None. The '07 TL gets the aux input as well as MP3/WMA compatibility. You can always take the aftermarket route with the aux input.

just so a seach nore03, you'll find that theres been alot of discussion between the years. to be honest there really isnt much difference between the years. 06 has the TPMS. For the most part they are all the same.

theres a shitload of threads on the 07......

But Im closing this before it gets into a "whaaa, my car rattles, whaaa" thread.
