Default 02+ TL/CL Reliability Questions...

Hey everyone, I am looking at getting into a 02, 03, or MAYBE an 04 TL or CL.

Im sure that being a honda, reliability is not anything to sweat over so long as the maintenance is up to par.

How many HIGH 140k+ milage TL/CL's are there out there?

Thanks.

-i dont want to be afraid to buy one with 100k since i plan on keeping it for a quite a while.

02/03 TL are great cars but they have a notorious rep for tranny failures.

if u can afford a 04+ TL that would be a better bet.
