Picked up a 2008 TSX. Let me know what you think.
So after I got rid of my IS300 ( dont ever buy one) I decided on some thing bigger so I got my self a 2008 Titan and love it. The wife wanted a nicer 4 door so we went shopping.
Ended up at an infinity dealer and saw a 2004 with 90 k miles for 10k. I thought thats a good deal let me check it out, so I did and it had hail damage on the roof, trunk and hood so I walked away.
Went down the street to the Acura Dealer and they had a 2008 Tsx 66k miles in the corner coverd in pollen and crap with a 16995 price tag on it. So I talk to the dealer about it, and he let slip that it had been there for about 7 weeks, which in dealer time, is a while.
Long story short, ended up the car was priced wrong it was supposed to be 18995 so I got 2 grand off right away.
Made a deal for the car, all the little issues fixed ( cracked tail light, needed tiers, brakes) so they did all that for free.
Its fully loaded except Navi. Which isnt a huge deal we all have I phones right.
this is it. The guy that did the deal and did all the paper work with me was real chill. Was ex military( im active duty) and gave me a wrap around warranty which takes the oem bumper to bumper warranty and takes it out to 100k miles for 800 bucks apposed to the 2300 that it was listed for.
Long story shot, the wife loves the car, I think its bad ***. And mods to come. Itll be getting a good tune up and a rbc manifold in the next few months.
Input please.

Great find and great price! You will love the TSX. I have an '06 Alabaster Silver and it's a great balance between sport and luxury for daily driving.
Keep it clean, alot of the TSXs in my area have fallen into bad hands and are often riced out. Best of luck and keep us posted on the progress!
