2007 TL Type-S A-Spec 69K Miles, Houston

Year: 2007
Make: Acura
Model: TL
Price: $21000
Mileage: 69900
Color: Moroccan Red Pearl
Location (State/Prov): TX

1. Price: $21K

Available in about 6 weeks when new car arrives from Germany.

2. Mileage: 69K as of 9/25/2012
3. Color, Transmission-auto or manual, Navi: Moroccan Red Pearl with Ebony/Silver Interior, Auto Trans with paddle shifters, Nav with upgraded maps to version 4.81A. Original Nav disk included.
4. Reason for selling: wife wanted new car
5. Location: 77573 (League City, TX)
6. Pictures: See my garage for 6 pictures. Can send more and much larger versions via email. Please no picture collectors or tire kickers or low ballers. My kid turns 16 in March, so I am not going to give this away, especially with all the mods. If nobody wants it, he gets it.
7. Are you the first owner? First owner. Purchased new April 2007 from Champion Acura in Houston.
8a. Title is clean
8b. Title is in my possession
9. VIN Via PM only. CARFAX is clean. Never wrecked or flooded or salvaged or anything. Texas inspection good through 12/31/2012.
10. Modifications: See Below
11. Service record: See attached spreadsheet. Silly things like tire rotations on old tires or old wiper refills are not included.
12. No lease or payoff. Car is paid in full with title in my safety deposit box.

Always garaged. Driven by a 40's woman, so not raced, driven hard or flogged. She just puts it in D and drives. Maintained by a meticulous gear wrencher - me. I have all receipts, original window sticker, original dealership brochure and correct Helm Service Manual (yes the big 3” thick one). Just installed new OEM Brembo front pads. Probably 4K left on existing set, but new owner may not have skills to do it, so it is done. All maintenance up to date including very recent 2x3.5 ATF flush (Acura ATF), coolant change including draining block (Acura coolant), power steering fluid change (Honda fluid), brake fluid change (Motul 5.1). Brand new 235/40-18 Dunlop SP Sport Max TT (correct A-Spec size). Original owner. Never wrecked. Clear title. Wonderful car in incredibly good condition. Wife just wants a new car every 5-6 years. Never in snow, ice, salt, sand, etc. Car spent its whole life in Houston. Professional detailer spent 8 hours on it a month ago including wash, clay, polish, seal, etc.

It has the full A-Spec package with 18x8 chrome look rims, suspension, steering wheel, full body kit, and badge. XLR8 cat back stainless exhaust with Magnaflow 10436 resonator, AEM V2 CAI. Duralast Gold battery. ATLP J-pipe ES0004V2 with 3rd cat delete. Original J-pipe and cat included along with original air filter box and original steering wheel in excellent condition. Trunk latch release button wiring disconnected behind dash to prevent thieves from breaking window to push button and get into trunk. Need key to get into trunk. Can hook up wiring if you desire. Have both switchblade keys. Acura (McGard) OEM wheel locks with 2 keys and the extra 4 standard lugnuts. Sun shade for front window. Pretty sure I got the windows tinted, but I need to dig through my receipts.

Defects: Small 2” curb rash on one rim. Very small 1” curb rash on another rim. Tiny dent above driver’s door handle where door hit my workbench when opening it. Scrapes on bottom of front lip as expected from low stance and body kit. Have OEM touch up paint, but not worth using under there.

I am uber anal about my service and keeping logs. I do it all myself. Means nothing for trade-in or Carmax, but private party folks should appreciate the extreme level of care taken to maintain this car properly. The new owner needs to do absolutely nothing but wash it.

Here are a few more shots. I need some shots with the new rubber. These Bridgestones were pretty well shot.

New 2013 M3 arrive in port Monday. Should have it in a month and be ready to move this.

Did not tint windows as previously suggested. Just use the covercraft sun shade in front.

I have people interested in the car but are waiting for it to be able to be driven away. That is Nov 13.

No other updates besides that. 70K miles and meticulously maintained. You won't find more complete maintenance records and receipts, especially when some of these are already 2nd and 3rd owner.

I can post specific pictures if you are intersted.


Thanks

Thankyou KJ TL-S

Yesterday I test drove the new 2013 SCION FR-S
Handled Better than any car I have driven.
I also looked at the 2013 VW GTI and GOLF R which is WAY OVERPRICED !!
Today I went to the MAZDA Dealer to see and drive a MAZDASPEED 3.
Last night I looked at a 2013 SUBARU WRX sedan- Not STI - TOO much $$$
2 days ago I looked at the KIA OPTIMA Turbo sedan - Nice car

Today I woke and thought- I think I should just get another 07-08 TL TYPE-S
And I found 2 WDP ones on here. When I saw this car and the records I had
to consider another color. This is my second choice after WDP. KBP is my 3rd choice- Very close to MRP.

This car also has the body kit, J-pipe and XLR8 catback with extention pipe
To eliminate the 3rd cat. I still have the OEM wheels with like new Conti VR rated All-seasons for winter here

How can I go wrong with this car

Thanks That would be great But 2 weeks in a Hotel would be costly .
I wish the timing was better I WOULD LOVE to stay in Texas a few days <3

Its been VERY cold here in Northern IL into the 30's at night High in the 40"s and Low 50"s

Thankyou for the Heads Up Bro

I WILL MISS WDP ALOT.
But MRP is my second choice and its Mega Modded
I have not been on a vacation by myself ever this far south.
I prefer a friend to join me, But alone I can do what I want

Thanks ALOT on the GOOD PIC UP

Damn dude, your car is BEAUTIFUL. JD, congratulations on the purchase, I wish I had this kind of money right now. If it was a manual as well, this would be the absolute perfect TL.

Thankyou.
This WAS my second choice over WDP
Now its My first choice MRP


I had a New ASM 2006 Acura TL Nav auto. Bought July 2006
I had a New ASM 2007 Acura Type-S auto. Bought Dec 2006
I had a New NBP 2007 Civic Si sedan. Bought in Aug 2007.
I bought a Certified WDP 2006 TL Nav 6-speed in Dec 2008
I bought a New 2010 Orange with White stripes- Camaro 2/SS/RS Sept 09
I bought the Recent 2007 WDP Type-S on May 2012 that was stolen after I put Tein SA
Coilovers- Tint- 19' Volk GT-S wheels that I WILL MISS ALOT

And now this car that has SO MUCH more on it
APSEC Body Kit, Wheels, Suspension, steering wheel <3
AND XLR8 Quad resonated catback with the ATLP J-pipe and extension and 3rd cat delete And the AEM V2 Intake <3

I might still put another set of TEIN SA coilovers because the ASPEC
Suspension isn't low enough for me ...
And I am thinking on buying a set of used 19" wheels on here ????
Maybe another set of Volk GT-S ? Work Varianza T1S ? Or something
That LOOKS GREAT like these 2 are. I am not a fan of chrome
