This 3G?

I am set on buying a TL and am going to look at one on friday. The car has aprox 38k miles on it and is bone stock. It is the color gray and has light tan interior and wood trim. Auto. It is from a very reputable seller. What do you guys think about gray..i know it is personal preference but i have not actually seen it in person. Also the bottom line price is 15k plus tax is this a good deal. The car seems to be extremely well maintained. Your input will be strongly valued.

Would you say the color is more silver or more charcoal gray?

Also, people will say that you should get navi, but don't listen to them: if you don't need navi then you don't need navi. Regardless, it sounds like a great deal. Got pics?

that's a fair price. make sure you get a carfax report before you buy it.

also, I would at least walk around the car with a magnet to check for bondo.

seems like a good deal. personally, i would get navi.

here's a pretty recent thread from another member that can provide some insight as to what you could do w/ your navi i.e. if your inclined to modding: https://acurazine.com/forums/3g-tl-audio-bluetooth-electronics-navigation-94/video-showing-everyone-why-you-need-navigation-option-add-ons-703458/

If its what you want, and hasn't been in any significant accidents, go for it.

Personally I would only consider a 6 speed manual with Navi, which can be tough to find. The manual has nice Brembo front brakes, and is more of a drivers car. The touch screen Navi fills in the center dash nicely, and is a great feature to have.
