Give me a few minutes to look and you go to this forums black market to see... what is you price range? $xx,xxx-$xx,xxx. And colors preferred?

 

silver or white preferably. price range $13k-15k

 

Here are what I found. All have navi btw which you were hopping for. all are 04-05 to stay in your price range.

Hope this helps. some are as close as 70miles away. PM me if you need any other help. I and other members are here for to help.

 

thank you, these are not bad!
was curious if it didn't come with navi system, how much would it be to even put one of these in from an acura dealer?

 

over 2 grand. The cars I found were actually the same price as cars w/o navi. Save you some stress and buy the car like it is...lol. Put yint and type-s lip spoiler ont ant other touches. What, you didn't like what i found ...lol.

I lilke Silver if it were my choice...lol. Did you mack any phone calls?

 

Based on the information in this post, of these 2 cars, I would get the 06. But ideally I would get an 07 or 08 with navi and a camera and fog lights and updated cluster and more. btw, some of the 05's have problem with dash cracking and other problems.. And even the 06 is not totally exempt.. but the 07 and 08's have been more perfected. It's worth spending a few extra thousand man! trust me. You could potentionally spend 16 on a car that has more problem and more mileage (less life) than just getting an updated version.. Go newer. You can get a pretty good deal on an 07.

 

We cant really know the answer until you know thi intrest rate you are approved for per your creditn score. You don' divide price og car by 60/mo= car payment. Price of car + the auto state tax * the intrest / by number of months= car payment. Thats why you need to start out with the 12-13k cars i showed you because after taxes and fianancing the price of those cars can be anywhere from 16-18k if not mor. We don't know know you fianancial business nor should we kno that stuff. I'm here to help tho in the capacity i feel comfortable doing . The honest best way to go about this is go to your bank or credit union and ask what you be pre-approved for. That way you arent upset if you dont get a car your heart was set on. For example. The bank says after running your credit, they will pre-approve you for $14k. Now you have a baseline to go look for cars 14k and under. Now heres the plus. Lets say you found a TL for 12500. Talk it down to 12,000. If you like you can take out the full 14k and have 2g's to do intake/j-pipe/exhaust or maybe you'd just like a nice set of $1000 rims, just take out 1k over the amout you need. OR no more extra at all and you have the car you've always wanted with a low monthly payment.

Hopw i didn't get too advanced.

 

i have another question, how are the Navi systems on the third gen? are they worth it compared to this years gps mounts?

 

Unless you know a window mount that can control ventilation or audio functions by voice then go ahead...lol. Otherwise, get the OEM navi. GPS also adjusts the temp of the air based on location of the Sunlight.

 

The GPS sucks. The integration with the rest of the car is good.

 

oh okay. i'm looking at a 6speed now since ive read ppl on here love them. any difference like if i'm changing oil i gotta use something different or same process?

 

Changing oil is the same between a car with a manual transmission and automatic transmission.

Obviously, there are huge differences in transmission fluid.

 

Which one? Is it one of the ones I showed or do you have a link?

but i'm going to look at this one here probably this weekend.

only thing im scared about is the carfax report reporting it had 1 accident.

http://www.cars.com/go/search/detail...5&aff=national

too good to be true for this price and mileage?

 

So let me understand. You'd rather pay 2g's more for a car with the same miles i found but without navi? really? those dashes look so plain w/o navi but if you r gonna pay 2 grand more it damn sure better be for a good reason...lol. The 04-06 navi's can be hacked by the way to show instant fuel data and a lot of other things.

Trust me dude... It's dope!!! Too bad us 07-08 owners can't do this.

 

Something is very shady about that car. I'd stay clear unless you wanna dump more money on top of the sale to keep it running You need to slow down and really think. Odds are this car had major damage. If you bought this car and its time to trade/sell, I wouldn't be worth anything like the other ones would be when its time to trade. Think a TL that should be selling for 22-23k on the lot is selling 9k cheaper and even cheaper than its older 05-06 with almost double the miles? There is a reason its red. For BIG red flag...lol.

 

yea i had a feeling too. really don't wanna troop to NJ for that white one.. lol

 

Thats crazy and lazy...lol. Ever thought they may bring it to you. If you're serious dealers will go out of their way even if you wont. But i thing you are making a mistake. Do you even know what the bank has approved you for amount wise?

 

i didn't know they can do that lol.. that's why i'm here.
where do they bring it to another dealer close by?
i really want that white 04 one

 

How about this. 28miles from you.

They'll do anything to get your business. I'm here to help. Now what they wont do is drive the car to you and you cant even gen a loan approved for to purchase. That's a wast of their time ans gas..lol. u follow my logic?

Heres a grey one w/ navi 16miles away.

well i found this http://www.autotrader.com/fyc/vdp.js...standard=false

i might go for it , hes offering $17,500 for it.. im just scared something is wrong with it cause its at a body shop..

 

did you even get approved for a loan yet?

 

yes i did low rates too

 

cool, whats your rate and how much did you get approved for?
Which institution did you go to?

 

i went with my bank, chase, 4.64%, for $16000

 

and are you gonna put any kind of down payment?

 

3 grand or should i just save for the payment on the auto loan?

 

well, you only have 16,000 to play with. you're looking at cars that are 17+ not including tax and title.

if the total price of the car comes out to about $19k, use the 3k for a down payment to bring the total down to your loan agreement, which is 16k.

If I were you, I'd look for cars in the lower price point....for example 12-13k.
tack on TTL, it will bring the total closer to your loan agreement of 16k.
put down your 3k, and you will only be financing 13k instead of 16k.

 

^ I agree with this sentiment.

I wouldn't go a dollar over 15k for your total price, IMO.

 

k thankss.
