Very low mileage '08 KBP Type S (13K) on Craigslist local to me.
#43
sounds like a scam to me... get a carfax before you buy it. when i was looking around for a 3G i checked on craigslist and thought I saw such a good deal, 07 type S with 60k miles for 16ish, and i checked the carfax, the dude bought the car in florida with more miles than it had on it when he was selling it to me. so yeah, i'd say 80% of craigslist ads are risky and to do two things: get a carfax, and take it to an acura dealership and get it all checked out for 100 bucks...
When I bought my 02 CL type S Carfax showed it was clean. The insurance company on the other hand knew it was involved in an accident 2 weeks after it was bought and then again in June 2006 just before I got it. Since the dealer had a $500 guarantee on the clean title, I collected and pocketed the $500...
It's kind of funny how skeptical people on this forum are. Why is it so hard for people to believe that this is a legit vehicle for sale? It's 13,000 miles, not 13! Why does everything have to be a scam? It's just another TL for sale that has lower miles than all the rest nothing else to it.
Also, not everyone takes their car to the dealer for oil changes and tire rotations. I wouldn't let those people touch my car that's why I do all my own basic service. So for example if I listed my 07 Type S right now with 8,900 miles. I would technically not be able to reproduce proof of the oil changes I have done. Oh and btw the seller of this 08 Type S does have service history available for any potential buyer to see. Again, it's as simple as contacting the seller.
Anyway, I'm done defending this guys add and car lol. Only reason I'm doing it is because just like when a post was made about mine for sale with 4,900 miles, everyone was yappin about how it must be a scam, all in the mean time I was making arrangements to go buy it. So for potential serious buyers, don't let a deal like this slip through all because some people online think it must be a scam when it's not.
If you want the lowest mileage KBP/ebony Type S available in the country now , this is it.

Well yeah, but you would do your homework before purchasing the car, just like any used car. All I'm saying is I'm not sure why people are always so skeptical about clean low mileage vehicles. If anything there is less to be skeptical about since it hasn't racked up a shit load of miles and had a lot more chances of being wrecked.

I wish I had seen this sooner, has it sold? I've got the new car bug and looking to buy within a year. Not selling the TL though. While I want a new car I've been keeping an eye out for a very low mileage 3G, especially a Type S.
