How many miles is too much on an Acura TL?
I found a very clean Acura TL for $4,800 (can probably bargain down to $4,500) and it has 133k miles on it. As I stated before it looks very well taken care of at glance so I think it's fair to assume it has been maintenances regularly as well. However many of my family members think 133k is too much and want me to get a car at 100k or less. I'm notnsure how I feel about 133k miles either but I know they're just fancier Honda's and can easily keep going past 200k if maintenanced properly. I also need a car as soon as possible and don't want to miss out on a potentially great deal. Should I buy it?
SHUT UP IDIOT HOW SHOULD I KNOW? ***** IDIOT GO TO A MIRROR FREAK
Does the seller of the TL have proof of all full and complete service and maintenance receipts? If they do the Acura has huge potential.
Honda/Acura engineer and design some of the most durable and long lasting engines in the automotive business. If the TL has been maintain it still has half a life to go.
The early 2000's ones have very trouble-prone automatic transmissions that never last over 30,000 miles. Find one with a manual transmission or look for a newer than 2008 or older than 2000. Lookit: https://www.carcomplaints.com/Acura/TL/2003/
You've already answered your question: if you're still not sure about this car, you walk away and go look for something else.
What you want, of course, is someone to guarantee that nothing can possibly go wrong. Not on this planet, Bunkie.
My 1997 honda accord is all rusted but it has 500000 km on clock and runs perfect… So if it feels right when you test drive it should be good. However not more than $4000.
Any you forgot to tell us what year it is…
If it has been taken care of and the timing belt replaced at abut 100,000 miles, it should be good for another 50 -100k. Good engines( Honda V6). I have had one for the past 12 years and have not experienced any issues.
- Is it worth it to trade a 2003 Toyota Corolla almost 130k miles for a 2004+ Acura TL 90k-110k miles? This is my moms old car and she got the Honda Pilot, she gave it her old car to me as my first car, but I want to trade it for a nicer car but used Acura are expensive and every time I asked the sellers to trade my Corolla and says no. Do you think Acura owners don't like Toyota?
- Is 16,000 miles too much for a 2000 Honda Shadow? I'm going to go see a used 2000 Honda Shadow 600vlx which is being sold for $1500. It has ape hangers, a sissy bar and has been bobbed. Does this sound like a good deal or is there too many miles on the bike to begin with? In addition, what should I look for when I go see it to make sure it's running okay?
- How many miles per gallon does a motorcycle give? Much cheaper than a car? Some idio actually said a while back that a motorcycle doesn't really give that many more miles per gallon than a car! This honda Rebel gives 84 miles per gallon! http://www.motorcycle-usa.com/...l-250.aspx And an msrp of only $4000 makes it a steal! Plus the legendary reliability of a honda!
- Is this too many miles for a hybrid? I have a 2008 honda civic hybrid, with 320k miles on it with the original engine, transmission, and battery, my friend told me most hybrid batteries don't even last 150k miles and that i should sell mine before something goes wrong, is he right?
