Best threads for prospective buyers?
 
Hey guys, been lurking and checking the interwebs for RL's, found some killer 1-2 owner units from 90-150K miles with all the maintenance done for fair prices.

What are some of the best threads for prospective buyers to peruse when looking for these beloved daddy warbucks rides?

Thanks!

Thanks bro! Got my eye on several, really psyched! Have had a white 95 civic EX coupe for 21 years, still great, killer aftermarket stereo, just wanting for more at this point.

The RL is a very good value if its been cared for, the same site that RL015 notes has a 2 year older TL with approx 30k miles more for only 2k less.

Personally I'd stay away from lighter interior(tan) as I love the black leather on these cars and shows less dirt and wear. Some of the issues/concerns I recall are:

1. door handle issues (break or sensor not working)
2. bubbling of leather on glove box
3. wear/tear of center armrest
4. pod on top of dash flickers
5. check engine mounts as RL015 notes
6. verify TB/WP completed just for piece of mind
7. bumper rub strips peel

I am sure others will chime in with other issues/cautions
7.
