Have you seen this car?

Does this TL belong to someone on here? It’s got RonJon stuff so I had to ask. Or does anyone recognize this car? One of my good friends is looking at getting a TL and this one looks good but I was just curious. I think it is a sharp, well done car. I generally think that BMWs look great with wheels with a bunch of spokes and all other makes look terrible, but this TL looks hot.

It would seem you are correct. So the question becomes would you buy this car if you had the chance? I wonder exactly what mods he has on this car? I also wonder about this little accident he had that didn't show up on the carfax...hmmm.
He even lists clean carfax in the autotrader ad.

His ad has a pretty good list of what mods are on it....

^^ They look bigger because they don't have a lip and they are one color. Go with 19s..

Go with 17s. They will be cheaper than 19s and they will weigh less which will make your car accelerate faster and stop sooner. I love hijacking my own thread. Your avatar makes it look like you have 26s on your car...maybe you should go with that look....

Carfax doesn't mean a thing.

That is what I was going to say. It is cTLgo's car. The only difference is that he had RJ's front bumper and he is selling the car with A-Spec lip which makes me say that it was either in an accident or it was in an accident. Moreover, he kept quite for some reason.

Hey guys,

Yup its my car, I actually met fish tonight, good to meet you man. Autotrader only allows you a certain amount of characters and they have a bunch of standard stuff they put so I couldn't fit everything in there. B&M thread mentions the accident. I think Fish can attest to how well I've taken care of the car after seeing it.

Although we've determined who's car it is already, I must say that's one nice looking TL. Great color too (coming from a CGP owner myself ). cTLgo - I didn't realize this whole time you were in the Chicagoland area.

I really like the wheels. I'm looking for something a little different, in the spring obviously, because Chicago winters don't agree with aftermarket rims. I'll have to check out a style like this in 19's.

To the OP - good luck with your search!

that's the exact reason i'm hesitant about putting 19's on my car (besides not having money right now)...i don't want to slow my car's acceleration down with heavy wheels...if my car didn't have almost 74,000 miles on it, maybe i'd put bigger and better rims on it...but if i'm getting rid of it in 2-3 years, forget it...

I must have been looking at the wrong avatar when I wrote that.

I met cTLgo last night and his car is everything he says. He has taken great care of this car and it really shows when you see the car in person. I don't know the actually name of the color but it has got to be in my top 2 colors for this car.
