I have a 2007 Black TL Type-S with no engine. It has 73,000 miles on it. Body is in great shape as is the interior. Any ideas how much this might be worth?? Or any offers??

If you wanna sell it you must open a new thread in the black market.

Too bad it's not a TL-S with the engine and no interior lol

Then I'd talk for a new track toy haha

I'd be interested in some parts. Where are you located?

It's more of a question than anything else. I don't really care to part it out. I was just wondering if it was worth anything or if there was a market for it?

Why not put an engine in it...

Is worth something to the right person of course. I know many of us here could use many parts off of it. Like Steven said, why not put a new motor in it?

I bet it could get 5 or 6 k

I'm getting quotes from 6k to 7k for a used engine and dealer wants 10k+ for a new. Not sure I want to invest that much into it or if it's even worth it? Trying to way out my options right now.

I would say around $7-$8k, $6k to $7k for a used engine? who told you that? dealer? the only valuable used engine is Supra TT 2jz motor, our TL-S used engine only worth $2400 - $3500 and having some mechanic doing side job will cost you at most $1500 for putting in a new engine.

with no motor...does the body has any damage?..what does it say on the title of the shell?...do u even have the title in hand for the shell?..

if its 5k ill look into investing in it myself...depends on condition etc...

I can find a 3.5L motor for my van for like 750.00 and it has type S heads on it.

Find a 02-04 Honda Odyssey and pull the motor out of that.

$7k for a motor lol.

I wan gonna do a J-swap on my eg hatch and the 6 sp tranny was 3500.00 the motors I was finding 3.0, 3.2 and 3.5's for less than 1000.00. That was about 3 years ago.

Ruby

The 02-04 Honda Odyssey has a 240 horsepower motor. NOT the same 3.5 as the Type S. Nice try though.

^^^their 3.5 is different than our 3.5.

You can get a brand new engine from acuraoemparts.com for well under $5000, although not sure about shipping. Another $1600 to install it at a decent mechanic. The car will be worth a lot more if you do this than just sell a nonworking shell (although you may be able to get a decent amount out of it if you part it out but that takes a lot of time and energy).

Yea can swap in ody motor, or motor from 2nd gen tl or cl. Can get those for $500 with 50k miles on em. You can even build a stroker 3.5 or 3.6 for less than a new engine from acura.

Well dropped in a used engine in with 29,000 miles. After seeing the car with the subframe dropped out of it and everything involved, I hope they know what they are doing!
