I'm a college student should I get a used 2007/2008 acura tl?
I'm a college student looking to buy a car anytime soon, and I have been deeply in love with the 2007 and 2008 Acura TL s. I also found out that Acura TL s are phenomenal awesome cars especially the 2004-2008. I don't make alot of money but i heard that they are advanced hondas which are highly reliable. Plus i just checked and you can get the used ones that are in great condition with like 70k miles on it for a steal right now.
So my questions are;
As a college student should I buy an acura? I heard the repair will be a tad bit more than a honda because there share most parts.
it requires premium gas but gets good gas mileage so is it advisable to buy a car that uses premium gas in college? Bear in mind I'm on the tight side with income but i plan to use the car way way after college probably until it dies never to wake up again.
Anyone that has an acura, will you recommend it to someone you know?
some of my friends have been telling me "its a near luxury car, its a luxury car blah blah blah" and you can afford maintenance and repairs is this true? Should this put me off the car I love? Although i plan to have it for a very long time, its not just my college car, it will be my first and permanent car. So please let me know what you think. I will greatly appreciate if an acura owner will chip in.
Thanks!
P.S I'm paying all on my own no parents contribution, no one is helping me so…
Added (1). I will also consider a TSX, which one is more of a luxury car the TL or the TSX cause I'm looking to go for the least luxury so that I can get it for a cheaper price and also have cheaper maintenance cost.
Acura tls are super nice luxury and speed don't forget riliable yes i would of loved to have one as a college student
