TL Noob

Bought last week. '04, no Navi. ABP/Camel. Certified. 35K miles. Lucky to find a Certified with A-Spec body kit. Not too many around here.

Nice Ride! A/T or M/T? I can't really tell from the pictures....

Mind we ask about the price (nice to see what our TLs are going for)?

Congrats and welcome aboard!

A-Spec is definitely a nice way to start. Now tell the dealer to remove all of their branding.

A/T, $26K - middle of the road for an '04 Certified PO w/ under 40K miles around Boston. Could have bought cheaper elsewhere, but it was the exact car I was looking for and is very clean. Plus, a favorable trade-in made the deal.

Checked out a lot of '04's in the $25K range. More miles, and most showed some wear. Also wouldn't have done as well on the trade. And I would have added the A-Spec afterwards.

I was just about to say that. I'd make them take it off. It really makes the backend look cheap with that decal there. Tell them to either take the decal off or give you a hundred bucks so you can take it somewhere to have it removed.

Too late to have them do it. I'm replacing the plate holders. The "Sunnyside" on the back is individual stickers for each letter. Looks like they could peel off. Should I try?

Congrats, nice car!

I used bug/tar remover, and my individual stickers came right off.

The car looks good...not a bad deal, either. The stickers will come right off with some bug/tar remover in less than five minutes.

That would suck to have to job of placing individual sticker on the back of all the cars. Very nice, good luck
