Made a new friend on Valentines Day

Hey All,
My wife & I flew up to Jamaica NY to check out a TL and to take it for another good spinnn. An 04 TL Navi. Abyss Blue Pearl, Camel interior(I like Camel), one owner lease from Pa, 89,000 mi, stock with an extended warranty, that cover most items and four fairly new michelin tires. For my standards, this car is in good condition. I got it for around $12k and then drove it to Connecticut to visit Fam and then home to Va. last night. Her name is Cupid.. I can see why all you guys LOVE this car. WOW. 30 mpg . Smooth, quiet, nice power, options and handling. This car's not perfect, but for me it's grrreat. Cupid has struck. Thanks to all. Cheers........

Good buy.
The longer you drive the car the more you'll appreciate it. Took out ours today after sitting in the garage all winter. What a pleasure to drive.

Yeah, you'll love more power as the wheel will probably be ripped out of your hands on heavy acceleration.

I doubt they will fit easily as 21's were a stretch. Also re-evaluate anything over 19 inches as remember, the suspension components have 85K on them and may not be able to handle some heavy 20's.

Before you go putting lambo doors and/or modding, you might want to perform some maintainance such as changing the filters, seafoaming, etc.
