The below items are free! I moved to my new house and they are still in my old shed. I live in Cornelius. I traded in my TL-S two weeks ago and have absolutely zero use for this stuff. Dont make me throw it out!

Would love to get that service manual from you. Just don't know when I will be in that area next. Would you consider shipping it?

Christmas was good. My ski/hockey trip to Colorado is paid for now.

Santa once brought me a car part for Christmas. I never got around to installing said part before selling car. Now Santa is mad and says she won't get me anymore car parts.

I wonder if that's the blue r32 I was trying to catch on 77 this past weekend going to VA. It got off the highway and was headed towards Wilkesboro.

The one earlier this month was at Foreign Cars Italia but I don't think that's the permanent home for it. Waterbean Coffee in Cornelius hosts a C&C on the second Saturday of each month.

If I get lucky I should have my RX7 driving before the next one.

I would love to see the RX7!

I don't have any personal experience with Toyota dealers but with me being a Hendrick employee, I would visit Hendrick Toyota Scion Concord by Concord Mills. They have awesome online reviews it seems.

I will definitely have to check them out, wish I could come buy a car from you but the Lexus SUVs are definitely a bit too pricey for me

Shit, they're too pricey for me as well I'm not in sales, I do all of the online marketing stuff (website management, ad creation, pricing used vehicles, social media, etc) so I have a normal person salary

Minus the turbocharged engine, the NX has the basic underpinnings of a RAV4, so you're just missing out on the fancy badge and styling. A coworker has a 2015 RAV4 Limited and I was really impressed with it.

Very nice! See if they have any leftover 2015s that they're desperate to get rid of.

Don't play with my emotions.

I have to do so much to see if I can get a car from a different state. Have to check door jambs and shit..

California is the most shittiest state if you're a car guy/girl.

We've had quite a few TLs traded in recently, only one being a Type-S. I think we listed it for $18k and it went pretty quickly. The base models were 2007 and 2008s but high mileage, so we retailed one and sent the rest to auction.

Also, check this out: 2007 07 Acura TL Type S A-Spec Black LOADED Navigation HID auto Mint
