Used 2002 Acura TL 3.2 Type S For Sale | Ft. Pierce FL
I should let the link do the talking, but I seriously would like some input. I am a soon to be previous owner of a VW Passat. Great car! I did just about everything you could do to the bulletproof 1.8T besides upgrade the turbo. Although I was happy with the performance, I still only made around 176hp. I had some electrical issues and the car is basically kaput. Needless to say, I came across this great deal, and wanted to know what the experts say. Is the mileage on this car too high? Is the car too old? The salesman at acura says that he gets these cars in the shop all the time with over 200k miles on them and they are still going. With the research I've done on autotrader, most of the TL's I've seen have been higher mileage TL's. So i'm uner the assumption that these cars will run. A friend of mine had an 01 TL with 225hp. That was a very nice car but, again, this was around 7 years ago, in 2003 or 2004. So does this car at that year still stand up to the newer cars on the road today? I'm also looking into a CAI and a possible ECU upgrade with unichip. Are there any other companies to look into for chip tuning. I love the price of the car. I just want a nice looking car that is nice for trips or to just feel good driving it to work. Please all comments and suggestions are welcome.
