Bought a '07 Type-S NBP AT tonight. 130k miles
Okay, okay...before you all start yelling at me for buying it at such high mileage, I got a great deal on the car. Won't go into too many details, but it is much lower than I have ever seen any TL go for.
Anyways, the only con about the vehicle was the high mileage and some minor cosmetic stuff like little chips on the front bumper from rocks and bug crap. I got it quoted $100 to make it look new again.
The thing that kind of leveled the playing field for me was the fact that the timing belt/water pump was replaced just 9k miles ago. I'm good in that department. As for other service, it has been serviced every 3,000 miles at a local acura dealership and had all recommended factory service done to it. I looked over the carfax and the oil has literally been changed every 3k miles, pretty happy about that.
Is there anything that I need to check out maintenance wise?
Everything feels real good Thanks for all members in helping me with my choice! Pics to come soon.

Congrats, if the timing belt/water pump has been done already, that's huge.

Joined up! Already looking at some potential mods that I want to do.
First thing that I want to do is switch out the license plate lights with LEDs instead of the yellow dull looking lights.
Next is a cold air intake and full exhaust system. I bet that can really add some juice.
