Good deal for an 08 CPO NBP 5AT TL-S?

As some of you may know I am selling my 07 TL-S. I love it to death and am considering another one. Within the past 2 years I have been fortunate enough to be stationed back in the good ol' U.S. of A and have owned 5 different vehicles since this time. People at work call me a "car whore"....lol.

My 07 TL-S is my first Acura and VERY impressed with it in all senses! I am going car shopping this weekend and found a nice 08 CPO NBP TL-S at the same dealer I bought mine. It has 19,570 miles and they are "asking" $27,849. Good deal or no? For those that live in the Atlanta area know that prices are higher than average here. I've done several searches and seen what members in the past have paid for theirs and would like to see what some more recent figures on what member have paid for there CPO 07-08 TL-S with around 20K miles. Thanks again Azine!

Few pics...




MY HUGE CONCERN!!! If you look in the top right hand corner you will see an "envelope" that stores trouble codes in the car. I talked to a salesman over the phone since I am located 2.5 hours away and he had no idea what I was talking about. I was trying to walk him through the menus on our Navi screen that stores messages but again was clueless. I'm hoping its just the tighten gas cap issue or something minor. I know its covered under warranty but what's the point of buying a certified car with issues. I actually bought my 07 TL-S Certified with this same issue, but I am a lot more experienced due to Azine!

Yea man the GS' I want with low low miles are '09-'10's for $40K+. I really dont want to settle now and get a car I want with low miles in black! Plus I think this one will hold me over until we can finally afford our 2G CTS-V's...lol!!

I was thinking the price was rather high before TT&L but ATL is pretty damn expensive! Oh, did you get the ingalls installed? I will be looking at some 07-08 M35/M45's also. But I'm pretty set with another TL!

I'm confused. You already have a TLS which your selling, and your buying another TLS?

no its not

why is everyone saying the price is steep? for less than 20k miles, the price is very good. people are just jealous they dont have a car with that low miles.

And that additional 30k miles could = 3 years of mileage for some people which would be worth that additional $5k so I don't see your point in that argument.

Some cars are priced accordingly for a reason.

with your theory, then lets all buy 100k+ miles cars so save a few more grand even. heck lets all just ride bicycles and save everything!

get my point? some people just dont want a car thats been used too much. and REMEMBER, there wont be any 40-50k miles cars to buy if people dont buy new ones in the first place!

a brand new 08 tl type s was at least 36k(depending on when and how much you bargained), so give it 19k miles and now its at $28k, seems very fair to me.

Yes I love my car but I drive waaaay too much and I even have a 2nd car to "help" take the miles off my TL-S.

I bought my 07 TL-S Certified with 52K miles and in 18 months put 26K miles on her and that's having a second car so the extra $5K is definitely worth it to me, especially having the extra warranty it will help fix all the "quirks" our 07-08 TL-S are known to have.

Still having trouble understanding why you want to buy the exact same car you already have? Is it because of mileage?

Seems like a good deal since its low mileage and certified. Just got mine for similar price although a bit more mileage (33K) with 6 speed.
