welcome aboard and congrats on the TL. Just as a tip, watch your wallet, these boards will make you want to mod the TL and soon you will be broke...

Congrats on the new ride man! Welcome to Azine!

Honda and Acuras can last a hell of a lot longer than that! My 87 Accord had about 210,000 miles on it before I gave it to my cuzin a couple years back. My 96 TL is still running with about 225,000 miles on it. Just needs a new head gasket and you'd get another 10-20,000 miles out of her easy!
