Getting tired of my TL..

Hey guys i might be selling my TL...I really dont want to but its getting old to me..I think im just dissatisfied with the power it has..I want something faster like the GS400...The TLS isnt that much faster than mine so to me its not worth buying the TLS..

19" Lowenhart LD-1
Alpine CVA-1006
5.6 Headrest tv's
Acura Oem Kit
Tls taillights
Eibach Pro Kits
20% tint

What should be the asking price or should i part the car out...let me know .Thanks

If all you want is speed, then there are a lot of cars out there that are much cheaper and faster than the gs400.

BTW, I love my 99 TL now more than I did when it was new.

Isn't the GS 430 LIKE 60 K ?? For that kind of $$ you could go alot of ways. The TL-S is not much slower, for almost 25K less, and the new G35 is very close in performance for 20-25K less.

Well, we're both wrong. Car And Drivers last test drive shows it at $54,950, with a 0-60 of 5.9. A TL-S with headers and intake is just as quick for 20K less.

Well

Yea the tls is a little cheaper but the gs400 will roll out on it...Hell my tl will roll out on a tls...I like my TL but there are to many copy cats around where I stay so im gonna get somethin harder for them to copy.... Also what is a G35...Never heard of it...If i got a S4 chip it and 19's tv's and springs...I'll still roll out on a tls even if it had a supercharger...what about that.........
