It could be the RL engine. I just hope it is tuned differently ex:

The RL should be driven at low RPMs because it is tuned more for luxury...something i dont do

I hope the TL-S is tuned more for sport

I can't help it. Plenty of fresh oil in a new car makes me feel good.

yea but the original oil that comes with the car has more lubricants to help break in the engine. If I bought the car new, I wouldn't change the oil for at least 6k miles.

take your time to find the one you want, i've been waiting 2 weeks already for the one I want. I am paying cash so I am waiting for the right deal. I've wanted this car for months now too.

What color combo are you looking for? Actually just noticed your signature. Good thing you are on the other side of the country. We are pretty much looking for the same car.
I may have found one. I have a guy that had listed it about 3 months ago and he took it off the market, basically for personal reasons. He told me his wife is sick, and for me to contact him, when I am visiting my mom, at the end of March, in North Carolina.
I also have another one, That I am waiting for some pics from. This one like many others, are asking a bit much for it. They are asking like 33k for the car. It is a year old, 8k miles and they should have paid no more then around 34k for the car. I think a car should drop at least 6k (maybe more) after a year and with the economy the way it is that should be at least another 2k. So I think 26k is pretty fair for a used car.
A lot of seller are looking at the list price and coming up with their price from there. No body pays close to list.
Also we both have money in hand so should help a lot. It is really difficult for someone to get a loan for a used car.
Good luck with your search.
Now that I think about it. What is a 23 year old doing with that kind of money in hand?
Oh, that's right you are in CA, just kidding here.
