What's it worth? 07 Acura TL Type S?

Hey guys, my wife wants to get into a Porsche Macan S and currently has a Cadillac ATS. I was considering taking her ATS as my daily and selling my TL Type-S that I use as my mostly daily. I have a Panamera Turbo and Cayman as well that I cycle in there. The TL has been great but wouldn't mind having something newer. I'll be changing the oil and the power steering pump. It seems to be going. I replaced the seals but still get some noise. So this will have a new power steering pump and serpentine belt. Typical wear for it's age and use. I keep it clean but bought it used a few years back. Just looking for what is realistic as it will help me decide to sell or hold onto it.

2007 Acura TL-Type S
144K Miles
Automatic
Navigation


Maintenance Log:

Oil Changed - 139K miles

Coolant flush - 127K miles

New Michelin Pilot Sport A/S3 Tires - 119K miles

4-Wheel Alignment - 119K miles

New Brakes (Front/Rear both Rotors & Pads) - 119K miles

Transmission Fluid - 118K

New Battery - 117K (9/15)

Timing Belt/Water Pump: 113K

Power Steering Pump: 85K

Drive Belt Tensioner: 85K

it's only worth what some one is willing to pay for it.
check the usual suspects...nadaguides.com, KBB.com
then check what they are selling for at craigslist and carguru.
Then price accordingly.

I think youll find the price will end up making you realize its better to keep as a semi daily than selling it. My guess best case 9500 but likely between 8-8400 if you can find the right buyer. If you have the room I'd suggest keeping it since you know the car and sunk all that money in for PM.

Thanks, I looked around a bit but figured users here would know a better expectation. I'd take $8K for it but didn't want to go down the path of much lower. For me it's really about space and freeing up some cash to put down on the Macan. ​​​​​​

I don't have a lot of pics of my Cayman handy, here it is getting a baseline dyno pull. I'm doing the GT4 Front Bumper so have been waiting get that squared away to get good pics of it.

The Panamera is actually Carbon Grey Metallic with a Cognac interior. Macan is TBD, just looking for a nicely equipped one, slightly used and a good deal. Probably black or white.

Cayman is Black. That is more my fun car, so am modifying it pretty nicely

Things I've done to the Cayman:
  • Clear LED sidemarkers
  • Raceseng Circuit Sphere 100 Shift Kbob
  • Cobb Accessport
  • IPD Plenum
  • GT3 Throttle Body
  • aFe Air Filters
  • Agency Power 200 Cell Headers
  • Soul Performance Valved Cat-Back
  • JRZ Double Adjustable Coilovers
Things I'll be doing:
  • GT4 Front Bumper
  • GT4 3rd Radiator Conversion
  • 911 Carrera S (991) Brake Conversion
  • Wheels/Tires

You can't post up pics of the Porsche on a dyno and not bring up numbers!

Thanks. The TL-S, I picked up several years back. I had some Honda/Acuras back in the day and you can't beat the reliability and overall usefulness. I always thought the 3rd Gen TL-S was one of the best cars that Acura ever built. I still think the styling is relevant, decent luxury and adequate power for around town. I really miss having a manual as a daily. That's what bugs me the most to be honest. I was considering picking up the new Civic Si. I may still do that but trying to decide if I'd take my wife's car for a bit and sell my TL or hold onto it for another 6-9 months or so and get a Civic Si or something with a manual box and new (so few options lol).

That thing doesn't do a lot. It's the base 2.7L (stock 275 crank) it put down 230whp stock. I'm taking it back in the next week or two, I'm hoping for about 260-265whp with the mods. The Panamera put down 543whp!

you will have to post in the black market section and make sure you follow the guide line how to post in that section or your post will be closed.
