Another "should I do it?" thread
2007 Type-S 6mt with 49k miles, carbon bronze
3rd gear TSB has been done by Acura stealership under warranty already.
Front pads/rotors recently replaced.
includes a set of snow tires mounted on spare rims w/TPMS
$21,500 - I'm like 97% to the point of pull the trigger considering the snow tires/wheels being included. This seems like a stellar deal. The car is quite clean.
Green light from the community? I'm pretty confident but I've always ensured any time I do anything with my 2005 TL in the past I've always consulted Azine first

I've got 51k on my '07 MT Type S. Did front pads already no rotors though. I would say go for it! Great car, change the tranny fluid to the GM friction modified for more piece of mind.

Looks good, go for it. Is this from a Acura dealership (CPO?)?
Reason I ask if its located at a smaller dealership/non-Acura dealership, I'd recommend you bring it to a trusted independent shop and do a Pre-Owned Inspection. $75-125 wasted, but for the peace of mind, priceless.

Also, were your rotors worn and needed to be replaced by then, or did you just replace them to be safe/eliminate brake dust.

deal is being completed this morning.
I took everyone's advice because I've been trying to pick up a 6mt for a while now (love my 5AT but just not the same as stick) and every time I see one that's a good deal it's gone within days. Just close my eyes and pull the trigger is what I needed to do.
There were already 3 other people talking to this guy from out of state so I pretty much walked up with loan approval in-hand and 1000 bucks and said hi you can have your money tomorrow. Sell me the car.
I appreciate the affirmation of my fellow enthusiasts.
supposed to be nice weather tomorrow, I may have to take pics and make a stop in the UA7 thread
