New TL Type S owner, new to forum!
What's up fellow Acura heads, I just snagged a smoking deal on a type s 07 couple weeks ago (wasn't even in market for one). Have been on Honda-tech for 11 years and Tsxclub as ballinonabudget, recently joined. Can't believe the amount of info and better members on here though! Got a lot to learn about the tl platform!
On with the crappy pictures!

One owner car by an older guy here in north Carolina. It was on craigslist one morning and I went immediately. The original owner was also balling out of control talking about getting an NSX maybe. Said he lived on a boat three weeks out of the month. He had every single service record since new including every cent of fuel and where the gas
was purchased, car wash dates, wax dates including the outside temperature at the time of doing so. I know, right.?

I only owe 7k on mine so why is 10.5k ridiculous?

Car has 146k on the clock but as I mentioned earlier, older guy driven interstate to and from beach with every receipt down to silly stuff like tag bolts changed. Would much rather take a few more miles than normal with huge price break than one with less miles and unknown owner/records.

Thanks for the informative post.
$10.5k is a pretty good deal considering the history and stringent maintenance records the vehicle has. The previous owner sounds meticulous and definitely wasn't hurting for money if he was talking about getting an NSX implying that he most likely took it to the Acura dealership for each and everything.
I have an 07 NBP TL-s for sale with 149k miles on the odometer and am asking $13k keeping in mind that I've got $1-1.5k room for movement. Psychology folks. My car has been meticulously maintained as well.

for being on a boat 3 weeks out of the month, and 146,000 miles that means of the 637 days he drove the car 200 miles per day. Someone's pulling your chain.
Likely having saved all the receipts for all the service. I imagine the trunk is Full !!!
HAVE YOU HAD THE 105,000 service ? Get ready for the 150,000 service.
Replace all the CV's, axles & bearings.
Welcome to the scene,
btw that color Sucks!!!
