Default Got a 3rd vehicle - 2000 TL

The ITR will stay in the garage on jackstands. The wife drives the 06 WRX. I needed something to haul the kid around.

I acquired this one today for a helacious deal. About 25% of loan value.

Needs a little TLC: motor mounts, fan motor and resistor, tires, alignment, cabin filter, fluid change, plugs, etc.

Nothing wrong with that at all, my dad actually scored a really good deal on a 01 Silver just like that but it was mint and only had like 35k miles.

Nice find, I plan on picking up an ~03 TL-Type S when I get out of college for the "daily grind".

*cough* transmission *cough*

Well tis a good thing since I do know the part numbers. You'll need a 06200-P7W-A85RM and 6 x 08200-9001 and maybe even a 37820-P8E-A64RM ecu. roffles.

TLC? start with about 10 more PSI in the front tires alone.

Make sure tranny had been recalled or big $$$ later on.
I still do not trust Honda's made in Ohio.

This is true. Your local Acura dealer can confirm whether your car has had it or needs it.
Looks like a nice pick up though.

Its not as nice as some of the other dailys I have seen in here (Bradstard), but it works.

The transmission recall is good for up to 150,000 miles. It currently has just a tad under 90K. I obtained the maintenance records and it seems decent. Its going in for service next week and I will be sure that they look at that particular area.

Congrats...I drove a 99 TL as a DD while I had my R. I can't imagine a better car for comfort and practicality.

Are they Honduh reliable? I'm seriously considering selling the Prelude for something a bit larger, and a BIT more professional looking. I'm so scared to get anything but an inline 4, I've had bad luck with V6s.

Are you sure it's up to 150k? I thought it was originally 60k then they had the recall and extended it to 100k.

Either way that's still a nice daily. I would have bought one, but the tranny issues scared me away so I settled for a '97 2.2 CL 5 speed.

The transmission recall has been extended to 150,000, recently, from 100,000.
