Smile Looking at buying an '09 TL

We currently have a 99 cl with 245k miles on it and 09 tsx with 90k on it. So the wife has convinced me in looking at newer cars and we have test driven a 09 tl that has 24k on and they are asking 23200 which I feel is a really good deal but am looking for a help on this issue. Is 22,300 a good price for the tl? It is not awd and no tech package. Believe me, it seems to be a real nice car.

On a side note we alos drove an Infinity g37 and that is a nice car as well but the deal is not not as good.

Any help is appreciated...

That sounds like a really good deal to me. Almost too good. Make sure you get to see the maintenance records.

As for the G37, I agree, very nice, but if you are tall like me, you will do much better in the TL. Take both for an extended test drive, once I was in the G for 30 minutes, my knees were hurting from being too bent and the seat was all the way back.

Without checking out KBB I personally think the price is a little too high for a TL without the Tech package. I would try to negotiate them down some.

Said it once, I'll say it again, I can't recommend getting the TL without tech package.

I do agree on the tech, I had a loaner without it and really missed it. The stero and keyless start are the main reasonably I got it.

As far as price, varies by area. In my area that deal is amazing. In Phronix you could probably do better. I've actually often flown to Pheonix to buy cars. Seem to be some of the best prices in the country there.
